First Week

Our staggered days were wonderful. We chased Pete the Cat and his rocking school shoes all around the school while learning where the Art room, PE room, Music room, Library, Office, Cafeteria and most importantly the playground was. We then decorated our rockin' school shoes with where we went this summer. Mrs. Ketchum talked with us all about South Africa and we found where we visited on the map.
After meeting our new friends in our classroom and having fun, we made a Pete the Cat cookie to eat for snack.

On Thursday, we had our whole class join us. We learned all about each other including where our names came from. Mrs. Ketchum's name is French. We also went to our first music and library classes. When we got to school on Friday we learned we had an early release day and go to leave school at 1:00. We went to Computer Lab and loved it. We also read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and compared our classroom with Emafini Primary School which is the school Mrs. Ketchum worked at in South Africa. We had such an awesome week for our very first one.
