britton starts 3rd grade

Last week Britton geared up for days without snuggling Nella, splashing in the pool, and generally not getting dressed until lunchtime.......yes, time to return to school!


Britton is still young enough to LOVE school.  I hope she always does.  I remember the anticipation of a new school year - a new teacher, new classmates, a new schedule and new schoolwork.  Britton had the same excitement, and was ready for school to begin - she was up very early on Wednesday morning!


Every year, a teacher moves up with her same class to the next grade.  Last year, Britton was added to the class that moved up from first to second grade with Mrs. Hamilton.  This year, she's in Mrs. R's class, and Mrs. R moved up from second grade to third grade with her class!  So again, Britton is being added to a class that was together last year.  Luckily, last year the second grade did many activities together, so she knows the kids in her class.


Britton actually has three teachers!  They rotate classes for reading, writing, and math, which helps get the kids moving and awake. She loves her new gym teacher, who told them she has visited all 50 states, so Britton has a new life goal!


They eased into third grade last week, and I expect next week brings the reality of homework!
