The first day of the new school year is done.  Today, everyone was in class.  We had a lot to take in.  We talked about attendance, lunch attendance, classroom procedures, recess expectations, classroom expectations, lunch hour expectations, to name a few things.  We took it pretty easy, easing back into the classroom routines.  The weather co-operated and we were able to go out and take some pictures.  We made 'get to know me' signs, we decorated name plates for our bins, and started working on a project thinking about what meets our needs for Love and Belonging, Fun, Freedom and Power.  These are needs that affect a lot of our decisions.  We will be looking at this closer as time goes on.  We ended the day with Gym - always a favourite.  Just a reminder that everyone should be reading at least 20 minutes a day - and these should be Good Fit books.  We'll talk more about those next week.  Hope everyone has a good weekend.
