First Day of School!

Jackson's first day of school was on Monday, August 27. He began fourth grade. There are three halls at Smith Elementary School and Jackson has now moved to the third and final hall- the blue hall. This is where all the fourth and fifth grade classes are. His teacher is Miss McNeill who he was very excited to get! He does not have his best friends in the class with him, but there were some familiar faces. We haven't heard any complaints about fourth grade so far, but I don't think he has gotten into the "real" homework yet!


He did not want me to walk down to his classroom and take this picture!
 
Adam began kindergarten on Tuesday, August 28. They have a staggered entry so that only half of the class attends before the whole class goes on the third day of school. His teacher's name is Mrs. Pardue. When I asked him who his teacher was, he just looked at me and smiled with that Adam smile. I reminded him of her name. He responded with some mixed up way of saying it and so I corrected him. He answered with, "How do you spell that?" Like spelling it is really going to help him know how to say it! He is on the yellow hall which is for Pre-K, First Graders, and Kindergarteners. 

He had a great first day. On his second day, he ended up getting lost but Mrs. Vickers, the art teacher, rescued him. He got hurt in PE, so the PE teacher got him some ice and then sent Adam back to class. The PE teacher didn't realize that Adam didn't really know how to find his class! Thank goodness Mrs. Vickers heard the sobs outside her door on the blue hall.
He was very apprehensive about having to walk down the hall by himself in the mornings but after two weeks, he is now a pro!
