Tomorrow is the first day in Hamilton schools and we're following suit at home, so tonight we had a little Back to School Night. The kids and I talked a few weeks ago about what they missed about public school and I was surprised by their answers. They wanted more structure, they wanted to sit at desks and have specific times for specific subjects. So I've planned this year pretty differently. We've got a dedicated schoolroom, a specific schedule, desks, and even a school lunch calendar.
We also had presents for Back to School Night: fancy new lunchboxes, a cookbook (Weelicious
Lunches), school supplies, some fun stuff for preschool/kindergarten, and a new outfit for each kid.
