Morning Circle:
Students shared stories of what they did during the winter
break.
We read Quran,
did the calendar, the weather and sang some nasheeds.
We talked about the life in the Arctic and how people and
Animals adapt to weather there.
Some books were read to students such as (Jack Frost, First
Day of Winter, My first Snow Man, Snowman Snowman What do you see?)

I recommend you try it at home. To do so below are the ingredients:
-
Ingredients : (1 cup flour, ½ cup salt, ¾ cup
water, ¼ cup white tempera paint, 2 T vegetable oil, 1/3 cup clear/ silver
glitter) mix them together and cook them over medium heat until a ball forms.
Cool in refrigerator and have fun!
