Guess what happened when we found out the boys' classroom assignments? Eli has Lucas' last year teacher, Mrs. McGinn. Thus ensued the "fight" of who owns Mrs. McGinn.
Eli being the little brother and more than willing to tease Lucas at every opportunity capitalized on this development and has totally enjoyed his brothers' irritation.
Lucas has no concept of changing grades generally means changing the teacher. Now he gets it. Now he thinks 2nd grade may need to be repeated. We've explained he will like his new teacher also but so far he's unconvinced. Hopefully open house will help.
It amazes us that one of the first things we learned about the boys was that they greatly disliked school and often refused to go. Hmmm....that hasn't been the case since they started here and a lot of that credit goes to their teachers. They both go to bed asking how many more days until school. Then Eli will say, "MY teacher is Mrs. McGinn!" Lucas growls and says, "I have a new teacher, Mrs. Dunham, I have her first!" They must have heard possession is 9/10's of the law.
