Dearest Harper,
Despite Covid still going strong, school is starting in person, and you only have to wear a mask. There's no social distancing dividers between you and the student next to you like in Kindergarten, there's no modified schedules, and you can take your mask off at recess. We stress the importance of washing your hands and not touching your face, and you're actually really good about it, so we can just hope you stay safe and healthy.
Here's your stuff, a few days before school starts. Your teacher's name
is Mrs Naake. You're ready to be a FIRST GRADER! Oh sweetie, where does
the time go?!
First day of school picture!
And a couple months later, your school picture. My goodness you're adorable!
Your parent-teacher conference in the beginning of November went really well. Naturally you're excelling in everything. You're a quick learner, good example, and a big helper.
Around the beginning of December you came to me and told me you're bored at school a lot. I emailed Mrs Naake and let her know. She said the beginning of the year is full of a lot of review, in order for the teachers to assess where the students are, and promised things would pick up when school resumed after the holidays. In the mean time, she gave you an extra reading project to keep you occupied. You said you're happy with it.
I love you,
Mommy
