School Days, School Days

We went to Mira's school today to meet her teacher, Mrs. Lawson, and see her classroom. She's looking forward to school starting, and I think she'll do wonderfully!

We got her supplies (a pack we bought last year that's not worth even close to the $36.00 we had to pay), met her teacher (an older teacher who didn't show much interest in her students as she met them), and saw Mira's desk. There are 3 kids from her class last year, and many more to meet this year.

When we got home, we looked through Mira's math and reading books. We even did a few lessons. Mira is realizing that the reading and math are much like she learned in kindergarten, and she had a very good grasp of the math problems and could read the stories with ease. So I think that gave her good confidence going into the school year.

Good luck in 1st grade, Mira! We love you!
