First Grade Open House!

I've been on the go so I'm slacking a bit on blogging, but better late than never!!

On Thursday evening, Christopher took us to visit his First Grade classroom and to introduce Shaun to his teacher Ms. Neave. We had a chance to chat briefly with his teacher and she told us she can't wait until she can buy his books off the shelves of a book store! After not even a month of school, she definately knows our Christopher! Christopher is an author. He LOVES to write. He writes EVERYTHING down, from recipes, to orders for snacks or drinks, and he writes book after book at home and even at school! Not a second goes by when he doesn't have a pencil or pen in hand. He spends indoor recess writing books. I'd say stories, but he likes to write science books, mostly about animal facts! We go through SOOOOOOO much paper here at home--and I'm sure he goes through lots of paper at school too!! I'll post one of his science books that he wrote on a future post.
While at the open house, We checked out his locker.
We saw where he sits all day.
We saw where he reads.

We also learned about his "first day of first grade jitters". He was nervous about his teacher---who is SUPER NICE!Check out his "quick drawing of himself"--as he called it. Maybe he'll even illustrate his own books...
