I hope that everyone had a fun and relaxing 2 weeks off of school!
My break was enjoyable but I really missed the kiddos.
I was so excited to see them on Monday!

(Abrar and Jana were so excited to see each other when they returned to school!)

We have had a busy week of fun and learning!

We learned about the New Year.
We even celebrated by having our very own New Years Eve party!
We had so much fun!

We learned about our new month, January.
We learned new words that are associated with the month.
We each picked a January word for our January class book and January writing activity.
For our writing activity, we put together a sentence with the word we picked and color a picture to match.
We display it in the hallway so our peers can see our great work!

We learned about birthdays!
We read books about the different ways people celebrate their birthday and the different kinds of birthday cakes.
We read a class birthday book that Ms. Bowdell created.
We practiced remembering our birthdays and drew pictures of ourselves on our birthday.

And then…
we celebrated Abrar’s 8th birthday! 🙂
