Day 1 was pretty good. Sixteen out of my 18 students showed up and were super excited to be at school, which made me excited also. I received tons of hugs and waves from my girl students during recess and lunch, and one of them gave me a silly band! :)
Fourth graders are super sweet and super funny. I foresee a great school year ahead. The first week of school consists of pretty much a lot of rules, procedures and explanation of routine, so there's not much more to say about school.
After we got home from work, though, we were picked up by our friend Jonnhy ( super sweet dude). We went out on a double date with him and his wife Melissa. They took us to Pollo Tropical, a delicious cuban restaurant ( Swans:) you guys know what that is) and Jonhhy refused to let us pay. We then headed to the newest shopping center in town, Nova Plaza, and had a fun night riding the bumper cars and the Farris wheel! We are now home getting ready for day 2 of week 1.
Thanks for a fun evening Jonnhy and Melissa! Vinland's you guys will have to join in next time :)
