School Days Are Upon Us

It's that time again, the first day of school is quickly approaching----tomorrow! I think my classroom looks ready to go, what do you think?

With upwards of 30 students this year, I decided to put my kiddos in rows. I had to rearrange a bit, so you see my word wall has moved to above my teaching area. It's so cute with it's vintage alphabet cards, I like it.

Here you can see that each student has their pile of supplies/books/folders they need for the first week of school. And their activity for when they first come in. It's an activity I usually do with 2nd graders, a "Treasure Chest" but I think if parents and I help out, my little firsties can do it!

My family for the next 180 school days

I'm excited because it's my first year officially as Mrs. Gianino. That should be fun for the little ones to learn :)

Happily tomorrow is a minimum day so we only have students until 1:00. A good way to get back in the swing of things for both students and teacher ;)

Oh, I'm so glad I have my coffee maker ready for me tomorrow morning...I plan to be at school by 7:30. That's....early for me. :)

I'll be back tomorrow to let y'all know how it went!
