Today I had the honor of attending a parent/teacher conference that Brenna got to lead! She was so excited to show me around her classroom and talked about it for days leading up to it. It was an early release day, so when I picked her up from daycare, she was practically running out the door to get back to school and get this conference started! She excitedly led me from the office through the hallways to her classroom. She made sure to slow down as we walked past the library to show me where the book fair was being held (I had promised we'd stop by after the conference). When we arrived in the classroom, Mrs. Tapia was with only one other student so we got a little bit of chatting in with her. Brenna took me to her seat/workspace and we began reading the list of things to do. She showed me how to identify the date and day on the Promethian board (probably the thing she was most excited about); showed me her favorite centers since she couldn't decide which one she liked more; took me to the reading spot and read one of the books to me; did a complete math worksheet while at her desk; showed me two important things that good writers do (use a finger space between words and use periods) by showing me some of the things she's written in her journal; and went over her citizenship review where she rated herself on things such as walking in the hallway, doing her own work, getting all of her work done. It was so much fun to see her so excited about school and so proud of all the things that she does each day. She is such a great source of joy and pride and I love moments like this where she can show off. Not only that, but how much fun it is to be in a Kindergarten classroom!?
This drawing was too adorable not to take a picture, it just had to be documented :)
