The First Day of school!


Today we officially started our first grade year!!! Here are my big girls all ready to get started!! They were excited this year because Daddy was home and drove them to school : ) We were all excited to start Heart of Dakota for the first time as well. 


They got to walk into their new class with new outfits on, their backpacks, and new lunch boxes! This was after a breakfast of a welcome back to school cookie cake, yum!! 

Here is Daddy and the kids and a picture of the girls and their "new" teacher for the year. 


Here are a few pictures of our day!!!



Ian enjoyed cutting!! He was so cute having I have his backpack and lunchbox just like the girls.



Even the cat enjoyed the first day of school!!

My girls working hard!!


I had each of the kids do an all about me activity and hung them up on our wonderful work board. 

We loved learning a out biographies and sharing about ourselves!! This was part of our story time and even Ian got to participate.  I took a photo of each one sharing one of their things to share about themselves. 






Here the girls are working on their math for the day and comparing numbers using the words more than. They did awesome!!

Here is our first history lesson from HOD. We learned about pioneers from Spain to settle in Florida. 


We also did a geography lesson to learn about the continents and the routes of some explorers. 


We ended the day with a video about the continents, a lunch in our new lunch boxes, and PE time!! It was a great first day!!
