The first week in photos

Starting the year:

We are connected as a group as well as being unique individuals. 
To demonstrate this we made a web by having each child tell something that they were good at, or like to do, and then rolling a ball of yarn to another child for their turn. Then we did it again and told about something we would like to learn to do or to do better.

Languages:

Mandarin with Yunyi

French with Madame.
