The First Day of School!

What a terrific first day. Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Meissner welcomed a terrific group of kindergartners. We spent some time in the classroom establishing some of the class routines. We then went to the Media Center for an assembly where we learned a new song. After lunch the students went outside for a Wow experience. The students visited a petting zoo filled with sheep, a pig, bunnies, chickens a pony and more. The children were able to see an enclosed bee hive up close and taste fresh honey. Each child was also able to plant a seed. They were able to choose between broccoli, cabbage and collard greens. Wow what a first day and this is just the beginning! We are all looking forward to 179 more exciting and learning filled days.
