After days and weeks of waiting the day is finally here and past! Our first day is now complete and not without lots of fun and excitement to ring in the new year. The day began as students arrived at school greeted by super heroes. Balloons lined the sidewalk and black and orange streamers decorated the hallways as students entered the building. Smiles awaited them as they finally entered the classroom for the first time this year, ready to learn and embrace the fun their teachers had waiting for them. Weeks of planning culminated in an assembly where students participated in games, cheers and chants, and our annual whistle dance. While back in the classroom students completed getting to know you activities while doing a Kahoot. During this activity students became acclimated to the iPads. Before we knew it the day was already over and it was time to go home. To my surprise student groaned stating that they would rather stay at school than go home. They were reassured that they would be able to do it all over again tomorrow and for the next 9 months to come. 
Thanks for a great first day!
