Happy New Year!

Welcome back!  As I sit here at school at 6:45 AM and anticipate all the smiling yet tired faces I will be seeing in a short time, I'm so thankful for this small yet mighty group of little ones God has given to me this school year!  I know that I will be greeted with faces that are happy to see me and their friends even if they aren't ready for the early mornings again.  This week, we will review the Christmas story and then also learn about Simeon and Anna greeting baby Jesus at the temple.  We will celebrate Epiphany on Epiphany (January 6th)!  Today we will review our story and Letterbook U and the rest of the week, we will be learning about the letter b.  We will be doing a lot of writing and blending for the rest of the school year.  Sight word work will be coming home in a week or two as we transition to also learning more sight words.  In Math, we will practice our teen numbers more and work with measuring.

We will visit Montclair on Thursday of this week.  We will be leaving there after lunch for the remainder of the school year.

As your child has told you I'm sure, we are starting our year without 3 of our friends from last semester.  We will miss them but I'm excited to have such a small group and spend time differentiating even more.

Have a wonderful week in Jesus!  Thank you for sharing your children with me!
