Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

Activities: The A-Team Author Unknown
We don’t do windows, and we don’t do beds.
We don’t do laundry, and we don’t do meds.
We are the A-Team, busy as bees.
We are in charge of Activities!
We do arts and crafts and special events.
We do papers, charts, and assessments.
We call bingo. That’s our task.
“What’s the number?” Five times they ask!
We plan special events with food and drink.
Who needs Thick-It? Oh gosh, let me think.
We visit, we talk, we reminisce.
We laugh, we cry, we hug, we kiss.
We are the A-Team. See us smile.
Our job is fun. Our job is worthwhile.
We don’t do windows, we don’t do beds.
We don’t do laundry, and we don’t do meds.
We are the A-Team, busy as bees.
We are in charge of Activities!
January Fun Facts
On average, it is the coldest month of the year
in the Northern Hemisphere.
It is the second month of winter.
In the Southern Hemisphere, January is a
summer month equivalent to July.
For a long period of European History, the start
of the New Year occurred in March.
An Explosive History!
Gasoline, the fuel used in
p r a c t i c a l l y a l l m o d e r n
transportation, was not invented,
but instead it was a natural by-
product of the production of
kerosene and oil.
Produced by distillation, it was
considered a waste product. However, with the
introduction of the automobile and a more
efficient internal combustion engine, gasoline
became the predominant fuel of the 20th
century. Even with new technological
advances, it is still the most used fuel source
around the globe.
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, January 18th
The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character — that is the goal of true education.
