We did it!

The first day of Kindergarten is under our belts. Trevor again did wonderfully. The teacher talked to them, and asked them to walk to the door to go make a book box, and Trevor knew since he was being watched, he better do the thing requested of him.

It looks like his class size will only be around 12 or 13 kids. But that we got the big scoop from the teacher. Lots of expectations, and ideas, and directions for the parents that she'll be explaining to the kids today.

The only thing that was a little crazy today, was that Gwen had her first day of class and it was for longer than Trevor had his school. Trevor seemed a little unhappy about that, but like I told him, it was just this one day.

He's going to have homework, every day, it will be our responsibility to take out his 3-ring binder and check off any notes for the day, the class website will be a place to check out other things that are going on, and also be able to write a note to the teacher as well.

I might even have it worked out so I can swap going to class with another mom that has her kid in the PM Kindergarten class. This month is just getting up to speed in the class, so the teacher said they are going to be playing on the playground every day instead of starting the hard and fast schedule that they will get to in October.

I'll be interested to see how Trevor likes his first week. It should be fun for him. Glad to have survived the first day of school!
