Congrats on the moves to kindergarten. I love to see all the growth kindergartners make they come in, knowing very little about school and they leave with so many skills. It’s evident that you have put much thought and preparation into your plans and I get the bathroom out of the way pretty quickly as sometimes, their nerves on the first day of school make them more likely to need to go!

Bless your heart cause I could NEVER do Kinder or primary for that matter. You have my ultimate respect lol. 🫶

I, too, am going back to K5. I have taught 3rd for the past 6 yrs. I am excited and nervous at the same time, but I am eagerly awaiting to see how things turn out.

I admire you for doing grad school and working full time as well! 💖

Laminate your name tags BEFORE writing names. Use sharpie, but if someone doesn’t come, dry erase marker over the sharpie can take it off❤️❤️

The good news is that you've previously taught kinder before and you know how challenging it is! But after the first few weeks, it gets so much better! You see more growth in kinder than any other grade which is wonderful :) Totally agree with you about the doorbell...not a fan...I do that same thing with a regular bell and it's loud!

I completely agree about using Century Gothic font. Not pretty, not fancy, but less confusing for kids who are learning letter formation. I use it almost exclusively!

Happy birthday 🎉❤ didn’t know you were a July baby. Mine is today 7-11 🎉

I would do bathroom expectations earlier because of the bus riders. Some of these kids are on the bus for up to an hour.

The points to the font used make so much sense. I like the font Comfortaa, it seems a little more rounded than Century Gothic maybe, but I am also going to be in middle and higher classes, so I think it should be acceptable.
