Tell us a little about your first day at elementary school (or if you really can’t remember, your first day at high school). My friend Eleanor and I walked by ourselves to school, and I remember almost crying, but I didn't. And I remember playing pick-up sticks with a boy and he cheated, but I didn't say anything.

Tell us a little about your first day at elementary school (or if you really can’t remember, your first day at high school). - I don't remember much, but in both elementary and high school, I probably spent the whole first day at the principle's office... Just kidding, I wasn't that bad. I remember one thing about the first day in high school.. I had a crush on our English teacher, Miss Campbell... I'm not sure why, I was 14 and I think she was almost twice my age, maybe about 26 or so..

Tell us a little about your first day at elementary school (or if you really can’t remember, your first day at high school). I loved kindergarten!! We had half days from 9-12noon! Couldn't have had a better teacher. I remember the fake pink birthday cake on the piano in her classroom...I remember "resting" on our little rugs too! Fond memories. Sadly they made it into a senior housing development now!and leveled it a few yrs. ago! I still remember the "cement" playground we used to go on! Great memories, some of the best from K-6 grade in that school. I miss it!

Today’s Questions – Tuesday 21st February, 2012. Good morning everyone, and welcome to Kobber’s Tuesday Questions. Without further ado, let’s get on with it!
Today’s Question:
Tell us a little about your first day at elementary school (or if you really can’t remember, your first day at high school).
Ug. I can faintly recall standing in my crib and listening to, but not understanding, my mom and dad talking some 60 years ago but I cannot recall my first days at elementary or high school. That's sort of how senility works.
Extra Credit Question:
Today is Shrove Tuesday – will you eat pancakes today?
Would have loved to but nope.
When was the last time you ate pancakes?
The day before yesterday. My wife and I had buttermilk pancakes, sausage and eggs.I cooked.
Bonus Question:
When was the last time you loaded new software onto your computer – and what was it?
Two days ago. TurboTax Premier.

If not over six people showed up at this old farm house, I would be okay. Several years ago my SIL bought some very delicate stem wine glasses for a house warming gift. Other wise, the people would probably have to drink from Yogi Bear and Cow and Chicken plastic glasses.
I always ask QOTD questions that I would like (or am able) to answer... yet I never answer my own questions. So today I will!
Today’s Question:
Tell us a little about your first day at elementary school (or if you really can’t remember, your first day at high school).
I had just turned five, and my mother walked me to the school where we all congregated in the playground. Then the principal emerged and we all chorused: "Good mor-ning Mrs. Nicholls" and she responded with "Good morning people". She always called us 'people'... very odd. My teacher was Miss Galloway - she was very kind and took the time to show us where the toilets were, where our pegs (for coats) were (mine was identified by a picture of a ladybird), showed us how to hitch our satchels to the back of our chairs - and made sure that us littlies were able to sit with others that we already knew from nursery school or our neighbourhood. The girls' uniform was a green check-patterned dress - but I don't recall the boys' uniform at all! The year was 1954 (in England). Funny how I can remember all that, but can't remember what I had for dinner last night!

Probably about 16 - two sets of 6 glass flutes (with one or two missing, presumed broken) and one set of 6 plastic flutes which we used when we lived in a home with a swimming pool. We didn't allow guests to use glass near the pool.

Can't say I remember the specific day, but I do remember the school and teacher. It was a positive experience for the most part.

Today’s Question:
Tell us a little about your first day at elementary school (or if you really can’t remember, your first day at high school). How about kindergarten? I don't remember my first days at elementary or even high school, but I do remember the first day of kindergarten. Weird huh? I was scared to death and my Dad carried me in, it was raining I think. Don't remember much about the day itself but I remember how I felt, and that was nervous.
