You're a First Grader...at Last!


Dear First Graders (and families of first graders),

Hurray, hurray!  You're a first grader...at last!  That's me {Mrs. Cooley} and my pal, Junie B. just hanging out talking about all the wonderful things about first grade!  I have been waiting all summer long to meet you, and I can't wait to take you on the most wonderful learning adventures this year!  Get excited--we are going to be reading oodles of the BEST books ever written, conducting fun science experiments, writing and illustrating books just like real authors, solving all kinds of puzzling math problems, and all along the way we'll be dancing, singing, laughing, and having a GREAT time learning together!  Some of you may have butterflies flapping around in your little bellies-- maybe some of you are so nervous, you even have whole birds in there!  Don't worry.  First grade is going to be a BLAST!  I promise.  Pinky promise.  See you soon, first grader!  

Love,
Mrs. Cooley
