The First Day of School

Did your kids start school today?  I know a number of you started already, some started today and a few are starting next week.  I want to encourage you to celebrate the beginning of school!  Perhaps have a end-of-week celebration, create a photo collage of each of your kids, include a couple activities that your kids love - just for fun!  Helping to establish routines, goals, expectations and more are definitely important activities.  However, I want to encourage you to invest in helping your kids love learning by including some FUN stuff that may or may not connect to any of the lessons.

Having a huge belly laugh with students reminded me:  I have the responsibility of teaching them the many lessons before me, I have the OPPORTUNITY to have fun with them and build a love of learning and school.

Let's have fun!
