Brynn had very minimal school supplies that she needed, of course, so she took care of hers on her own and just Clara and I tackled the fourth grade list.
Clara was excited that she will have her first grade teacher again for fourth grade. Back-to-school night was on Monday. She got to see who else was going to be in her class and put away her supplies, etc.
Today was the official first day!
Brynn came home over her lunch break and things seemed to be going pretty well at that point, and then she only had one more class before she was done for the day. She has last period off again this year, so she was glad for that. She plans to continue working at her part-time job throughout the school year.
Clara reported a great first day! Her teacher shared some photos.
We did have time during and after dinner to chat about the day more and Brynn said her goal for this school year - aside from the obvious of doing well in school and the already-on-track-to-accomplish goal of making money - is to make more friends. Brynn's rating for the day was 4 or 5 out of 10.
When I asked Clara, she said to "feel comfortable in my class, do everything I need to do, master division and improve my typing." I was going to ask her to rate her day out of 10, and then she said she wished she was at school right then, so I figured that basically answered my question. ;-)
Here's to a great school year ahead!
