Happy New Year friends! I hope you’re well-rested from the break and glad to be back! For our first Literacy Snack for the new year, we’re reading a snowy read-aloud, The Snowy Day, by Ezra Jack Keats.

It’s a wonderful book that captures the adventures of a little boy on a snowy day in the city. My favorite part of the book is when he puts the snowball in his pocket and comes to find it has melted away. I just knew we needed to have snowballs for our snack this week.

Ingredients

Powdered donut holes – I did 4 per student

That’s it, just donut holes but oh boy, we had a fantastic time talking all about snowballs and playing in the snow etc to go along with our snowy read aloud.  There were some pretty great stories considering we just came back from break.
