The First Days of Grade One

Well, those first few days are a blur. There is so much to cover at the beginning of the school year. We have been settling in to the grade 1 experience. Things are different than kindergarten and full days every day certainly can be challenging. Everyone is doing a great job learning about the new routines and slowly getting back into school mode . . . me included! Thanks to the Room 2 Families for filling out and signing all the forms that are coming home and getting them back to us at school.

This blog will highlight some of the activities taking place at BHS and in our classroom. We hope you enjoy following along in our year together.
