Over a month into school, means time to post 1st day of school pictures!
Caden headed to kindergarten on August 16, 2012 at Southeast of Saline.
He is in Mrs. Wiles's kindergarten class that has 20 kiddos in it--that is a lot of kindergarteners--thank goodness they have some good aides, a para, and some great parent volunteers!
Here is our kindergartener in all his glory!
Still loves Lightning McQueen--and this Target 9 dollar backpack is going on its 2nd year--so this mom was impressed! He also chose a McQueen lunch box. He is my picky eater so he is fine having a peanut butter sandwich and veggie sticks for lunch, but Layne and I make him pick at least once a week to eat at school and so far he has found several school meals that work for him!
Good friend Ali--they are in different classes but still hang out some!
Love this boy! Caden and mom on his first day!
Welcome to Mrs. Wiles's kindergarten classroom--Rosetta is also the high school cheerleading coach and has really improved our cheerleading program the last few years!
---the 1st day after school when he came to my room he asked a million and a half questions about my room and I got nothing done--since then, mommy has brought movies and the ipad for him to help entertain himself so I can get my teacher work done! There are also a lot of other teacher kids at SES so sometimes we rotate kids around and that works pretty well!
---Caden's 2 best friends are Ian and Tate
---Free choice center time is usually train table and legos although he has tried writing center a few times as well.
--Recess is a favorite--apparently Caden and "his boys" chase girls at recess--Layne and I were so proud!
--the 1st week of kindergarten he liked it but told us he still liked preschool better and then after the 1st week he got to go shopping on Friday at the Kindergarten Store and that sealed the deal for this child--kindergarten now wins!
--By Thursday the all day kindergarten day has worn him out pretty good and he starts making bad choices at home, so we have learned that Thursday bedtime comes a little bit earlier so we can all have a good night!
--I love listening to him practice his sight words and he has started reading sight word books--so glad he is starting to take an interest in reading!
--The other night, Caden got out his trio blocks and sticks and the directions and started following the directions and making cool items by himself--that was a first--usually he is begging Daddy to build it all for him--so proud of this accomplishment!
