DD to School

June 15th 2011, DD's first day to school.The most awaited day of my sweety. Was wondering how she will react to the outside environment. She is never used to being outside home. The day has come, i was making her prepared to go to school. She was pretty excited about that. Got her couple of new dresses, new shoes, new bag and new waterbottle and what more.. she was much excited to carry those things rather than being to somewhere.

First day i was supposed to stay with her for the whole day to make her comfortable. We put in the class where the teacher can speak to her in tamil. Teacher's name was Janani, she seems to be very soft and caring. one way was happy about that.

As it was a montossori method, nothing like a class room environment. very homely and children's seems to be enjoying thier time spent. Each and every child was so excited about doing thier own activity.

First activity to DD was to pick the ball from the picker from the egg tray and put it in some other day. DD did it in a minute and she was happy doing that. Second activity was making chains out of different colors of rings she wasnt so comfortable doing that. Peeping her nose in next girl's activity.

Time passed by and it was snacks time. was wondering how other kids eat on thier own. DD is not used to eating on her own and the most toughest part is making her eat. The same happened that day she didnt eat anything and was watching how other kids were having thier tiffen.
1st day in school was over and we were asked to leave for the day. Made her play in the play area for sometime to make her feel interesting to come to school. And she did enjoy the place and people surrounded by.

Next day, no parents are allowed to go inside the classroom, was scared on DD will be crying when entering school. Once they took her from my hand to near the shoe rack, she started screaming. it was a tough sight to leave her crying so much. Me and sankar was waiting outside to know whether she is comfortable in the class. Sankar never got to see the class and without DD's knowledge he peeped into the class to make sure she is alright and not crying much. Dad was supposed to pick her up that day.


For the next couple of days she was like crying that " School vendam" "Naan schoolukku poga MAtten" and all those drama. From the next week she felt the school to be interesting and was the first person to be ready to school.
Each and everyday i could see her learning new things from school. Now she counts 1,2,3... using her fingers. She says A,B,C,D.. completely. Was trying to dance something and all. Good progress in her. But the only complaint from school is that she is not opening her mouth.


Proud of you dear. This is one more stage of your growth. Great to pen down your stages.. may be once you can read this blog you can know on how much we love you dear..
