I am still going to start with New year&#8217;s traditions and resolutions.&nbsp; As a school we are planning to re-establish routines, rules, and relationships after the two week break.&nbsp; My goal is to do this in the target language while making cultural comparisons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"625\" height=\"328\"
