First day of First Grade

 Hayden started first grade back in August. She was beyond excited! 
 She's officially a Riverview Otter. She is in the Chinese Immersion program there. It was really stressful on all of us the first 2 weeks. Hayden was always ornery, tired and difficult! Before she started the class the teachers warned us this would happen due to all of the initial stress of starting the program. After those first weeks, she got in a groove and is doing an amazing job. It really is so amazing to see how quickly these little 6 year olds can learn Chinese. Hayden can count to 100, sing many songs including Happy Birthday, read and write many Chinese characters. It's really impressive!



She spends half her day in Chinese with Mrs. Ackerson and the other half in English with Mrs. Helm. 
Hayden is doing so well in school and loves to read, write and do math! She is a little smarty pants!
