Brielle's First Day of Kindergarten

Today was Brielle's first day of kindergarten!  September 4, 2018!  She has Ms. Lakey and other than a few nerves on the playground and about 5 kisses for Mommy and Daddy, she went in smiling!

Here's what she remembered from today:

Overview:  "School was my favorite day!"

-I made two friends.. Daisy and Brody

-I waited for my turn and then hung up my backpack.
-We read 3 stories... Pete the Cat, The Kissing Hand and a story where they got lost and followed the bus home.
-In PE:  We were running around and when the sign said red, we stopped and green we walked.
-In Music:  He was really funny.

Who she sat next to at lunch:  Daisy
What she did for recess:  We played in Ms. McDonald's class - we played with Magneta toys
Math: We did marshmallow math

I colored my kindergarten hat at playtime.

We played with playdough before play time

Her favorite part of the day: "When I met new friends."
