Today, Saturday, February 21, 2015 is International Mother Language Day! Please take a moment today to help your child reflect on his or her own native language, the language he or she has spoken since birth (this can be English, too).
Perhaps it would be good to reflect on concepts and feelings that can be expressed in his/her mother language rather than a second language!
Thank you as well to Mr. Bashir Khan who came to speak with our class on Wednesday about this important holiday, the reason for it's being on February 21, and the Bangla language of Bangladesh.

Nice picture.
