Thursday, January 8th

Today we welcomed a new student to our class  - Nathan!  Nathan and his mom, Sveta, spent the whole morning with us.  Nathan seems to have a particular interest in trains, animals, and water, and speaks Russian and Hebrew.  Please help us make him feel welcome!  We spent the week in and out of free play so the students can comfortably settle back in to the school schedule.  Next week, Janet and I look forward to revisiting some of the work the class was focusing on before the holiday break.
