New Year's Resolution

I have always enjoyed celebrating New Years Day! It is a time for new beginnings and new promises. It's a time to start fresh and dream of what the new year may hold. Today, our class discussed why we celebrate New Years Day. We also learned a new word...resolution. We discussed that a resolution was a promise to do or keep from doing something. After discussing the term resolution, we began to think of things that we could resolve to do in 2007. I shared with the class that my resolution was to save more money so that I could buy the nicer things that I really want. As the class began to share their own ideas, we decided to write them down to share on our blog.

Here are a few really good resolutions for 2007:

Alexis told us that, this year, she would like to learn to tie her shoes.









Jay promises that this year he will try to help his mom and dad around the house.

Tristyn also made a resolution to help more around the house. She wants to help her aunt do the dishes.

Jacob is planning on working extra hard this year to achieve his goal for 2007! He wants to save money so that he can buy himself a house one day. I guess it's never too early to start!
