One class fish....and then some

Well we made it through the first day. I introduced the kids to our class fish, Michael Phelps. My students from last year begged and begged to have a class pet so this year, I obliged. After recess, we were up to 3 class pets: Michael Phelps and two caterpillars. Hopefully that will be the end of that. I'm not a zookeeper.

So today we learned how to raise our hand, line up, walk down the hall, and how to spell multiplication. Or some of us. I made them laugh, and I didn't make anyone cry. Yet. Who knows what this year will bring.
