Gettin' the Hang of School

 Transitioning from lots of Mommy time and carefree days to a day full of sticking to a schedule and teacher time can be rough.
Today we created a T chart and on one side we charted about some of the things we miss about not being at home with mom and threw ourselves a mini pity-party.

To help us get out of our funk, we read Bad Bye, Good Bye by Deborah Underwood and illustrated by Jonathan Bean. Throughout the book the students made connections with the character and his family.

After reading the book, we charted the good things about being at school.

We walked away knowing that change is hard and we will have tough times but we need to be open to good times  that can come into our lives.
