Good-Bye 1st Grade!

Monday, 6.20.11

Elissa really loved her First Grade year.
It has gone by SO fast.
I can't believe I have a SECOND Grader now.

Elissa and I both loved her teacher, Mrs. Carr.
She was the perfect blend of strict and loving. Exactly what Elissa needed.

Today there was a last day assembly that I'm so glad I went to. All the classes sang a song, there was a slideshow of a year in review and awards were given out. Elissa got one for helping to clean lunch tables on a regular basis. I had no idea that she did this. I was also really surprised when the slideshow was going, all the kids were singing to the latest songs that was playing as background music. I guess I shelter my kids, though Elissa does hear the songs on the bus. Also, the teachers did a show of dance through the years. It was awesome!

Ok, so I just asked Elissa what she would say about her first grade year. This is what she said, "It was kind of boring. We had to sit in chairs all day." Nice! :-]
















They were singing "Fireworks" by Katy Perry



Yes, the song is called "Don't pee in the pool".

Elissa was VERY excited to get a certificate for helping clean the lunch tables. Cole got one too. :-)


Then the very fun performance by the teachers.
Elissa's teacher is right up front. She did a great job!


Good-Bye First Grade!!
