Doggie boy
School is out for the years and the kids are now on vacations. This year has been a growing up experience for Doggie boy as it was the first year that he was in elementary school. It has been a fun and trying year for him as he adjusted to the new surroundings and expectations.
Here is a list of 10 things which Doggie boy learned about being in Primary 1.
- You can sleep in…Everyday!! In fact it is okay to wake up at 9am and still be in time for school. (He is in the afternoon session by the way 🙂
- You get to handle $$ and decide what you want to eat during recess.
- There are more people to play with and things to do in school as compared to when he was in kindergarten.
- There are tests and exams that one has to prepare and study for.
- He has to be responsible for his own actions. Ie: Washing his own school shoes.
- It is okay not to know everything as long as you are willing to learn.
- Ask if you are in doubt.
- You get lots of holidays after each school term.
- It is fun especially there are lots of games/ activities to keep you occupied.
- He gets to go to school with his elder brother.

First grade was wonderful for my son with a fantastic teacher and more friends to meet. Unfortunately, because I work so early in the morning, he may never have the luxury of sleeping in while on my watch. The increase in responsibility was good for him also, as well as the advancements in reading so he could feel confident reading to himself. One of the joys of growing older. 🙂

My kids are growing up so fast it will be them soon and I love how you relish every step in your children’s lives! I don’t know, by the way, if we have 2 sessions in elementary in Lebanon but if we do, I am so fighting for the afternoon! 🙂

Joaco my youngest is now in first grade!! He´s reading and writing more fluently and he´s doing lot´s of things on his own. Even making his bed!!!
Great that you decided to record it, for me it´s the only way to remember once you decide to look back.
See you around

It’s been a long time since my kids ere in primary school, but I bet the lessons remain much the same. He is a handsome young man and soon enough, he’ll be in college. Time flies. 😉

My son’s not quite there yet and I’m not really that anxious for him to be. I know they just go by so fast. Glad he enjoyed his first!
