WOW! This first week back was a little crazy. I enjoyed my break and didn't step foot in my classroom until Tuesday morning. That meant we had to do a little organizing, cleaning, and catching up. The best part was using shaving cream to clean our desks and review our diagraphs {ch, sh, th, wh}.
I read them Squirrel's New Year's Resolution, which was really great at explaining to them what a resolution was. Then, we wrote New Year's goals and made these super cute New Year's Kids.

I brought some New Year's Crackers back with me from Canada. Each cracker comes with a crown, toy, and joke/riddle/trivia. They loved poppin' them and had a great time!
It was a perfect end to a crazy week! :)
