And this is for real. She is starting a FIRST school year in the “young 4’s” class today, and it absolutely freaks me out. Why? Because next thing you know she’ll be in college, then get married and then…..Ok, make me stop. Breathe.
So we walked in and took a quick pic in her little shirt and then…. I left thinking it was going to be OK.
And it was! I walked in (my first mistake) to pick her up and I got a scolding.
You see, Miss Chris is not a pushover at all. After she told me to wait outside the door until she opened it, I noticed ALL of the kids were sitting criss cross applesauce quietly listening to a story. There was no running up to me giving me hugs and kisses. There was no chaos. It was like a well-oiled machine. Tatum was dismissed and came up to me for a hug and the rest of the kiddos got their story. HUH!? Wow! SO impressed.
Then, she gave me Tatum’s homework! (Actually mine). I was to make a poster for their wall About TOT. Then I was to get a composition notebook so they could fill it with ABC pics for the year.
Being the overachieving teacher, I quickly went to the store to buy what was needed and got to work on the poster.
All in all, a very successful first REAL day of Pre-K at PFT.
