Back to School Night

Back in my elementary school days, Back to School night was always held two, three, maybe even four weeks into the new school year before having a "Back to School Night".

Not Hannah's school.

For the last three school years, Back to School Night had been hosted on the first day of school. This year, it was the evening of the second day of school. So for the past two school days, the kids have been busily working on projects to make their classroom welcoming and personalized. They wrote newspaper articles about themselves as well as made a self portrait.Upon entering the classroom and signing in that we had attended, there was a Classroom Scavenger Hunt with a list of things for the students to show their families. The list included things such as showing what was in their desk, explaining their 'money' box and how the classroom store works, the grading chart, the multiplication chart, and finally ended with introducing your family to Mrs. Tatman. Mrs Tatman was very impressed that Hannah had brought her entire family, including her Gramma and Papa!After Back to School Night, we all went to Golden Spoon, accompanied by Amy and Bethany and celebrated the new school year with yummy frozen yogurt!
