Back to school planning before third grade

Jordan heads back to elementary school this week. She's kicking off third grade with a lot of excitement. She tells me she is looking forward to everything... Even the homework! Earlier this summer, she told me she felt like third grade was a good time to stop creating yearly class books that tell her story. But when we attended back-to-school night last week, our teacher told us there are a lot of new kids who are new to the school in the class.So... the official Jordan's Third Grade Book was born:

Jordan's Third Grade Book by Jen Lee Reeves

The cool thing about the little about me book is seeing so many other families kicking the school year off with one. Elementary school is such a wonderful age to teach how we are all born just right.We're ready for another great year! One of Jordan's favorite friends is in her class again this year. She's also looking forward to meeting the new kids. After such an adventurous summer, I'm hoping we can get into the groove pretty quickly. Along with school, Jordan plans to join our local youth cross county team and she's taking two dance classes on different days. Sprinkle in a weekly piano lesson and we will have a very busy kid!I hope everyone has a fantastic start to their school year.If you are looking for additional posts we've written about the school year:Sharing support for the new school year (Jordan's pep talk)Preparing for a 504 planTalking to Kindergarten parents
