Meeting the new Teacher

In Front of the class
    Last night we went to meet the new teacher for 1st grade. We had a scavenger hunt and William got his picture taken. He found his desk and learned about all of the kids in his class. His "girlfriend" from last year was in his class again. He ran over and gave her a big hug. It was so very cute. There were many friends from last year so it should be a good year not having to make so many new friends this year. He has homework already. He has to find one item to put in a red bag to bring to school to tell everyone who he is. It is a show in tell of sorts.

My New Desk
    William found his desk easily. It is nice that he is starting to read. So now he can see what things say. His desk is right next to the teacher so that should help with all of his care. We met his new teacher and she seems nice. We have been working hard on reading all summer long. I am hoping that this will pay off for him when he get into class this year.

    With all of William's special needs, we got to stay late to meet with the teacher to go over his schedule and the special care that he will need for the school year. William starts school each year with and instruction manual. It is a document that tells how to take care of him when his blood sugar is off, when to check him, troubleshooting his diabetes equipment and emergency phone numbers. I am trying to send him to school the safest way I can. I want his teachers to have as much information as I can give them to best take care of my son.

William is excited about going to school and keeps asking if today is the day he goes to his big school gain. We are counting down the days and I am glad that he is excited about going.

Kicking off 1st grade,

His Loving Dad
