We made it through our first week as parents of a first grader. We are happy with the school we chose and are so excited that 3 of his classmates from Kiddie Kollege are in his class. It made the first day a little more comforting. Even so, it's still been a rude awakening for all of us. We were used to being able to pick Peyton up anytime before 4:30; never had to worry about minimum days and are now figuring out what to do during Christmas break and a week at Thanksgiving. I sound so old but I remember we only had 2 days at Thanksgiving, now a week?!?
Peyton has had a few bumps himself.
The positives: He loves the basketball courts, buying lunch, playing handball and his uniform. Even homework wasn't a problem.
The negatives: He has learned very quickly that you can't yell across the classroom, you have to raise your hand if you want to talk and if you've been given enough warnings you'll have to turn your card and that means sitting out for 10 minutes at recess. He got to do that on Friday. Yikes.
Hopefully this coming week he'll be able to remember the new rules and have a better week :)
