Today was Lonnie's first day of school starting 6th grade. When we arrived, we discovered that the teacher in whose class we thought Lonnie would be, had resigned and accepted a position at another school. So the teacher who has Lonnie this year has no information or preparation for dealing with her at all! Should be interesting - I wonder how soon she will be calling me to schedule a conference.
Lonnie is reluctant to let go of her summer routine, but we got her dressed and to school with no meltdowns, so that in itself is a victory. We saw Lonnie's teacher from last year. Lonnie is now almost as tall as her, she had a real growth spurt over the summer. The first couple of weeks are always the most difficult, but I feel like it may be a little easier this year. As Lonnie gets older, she seems better able to adapt to changes.
