Being Thankful

Hi everyone! Today, we spent a good deal of time talking and writing about what we are thankful for. We even created a turkey to show the things we are thankful for. Here is mine:


This is an activity that Kenna did while she was in second grade and I pull it out every year to look at. The kids are grateful for A LOT of things, some of them just couldn't stop writing about what they are thankful for...the list goes on and on!

It is a short week, but we are still working hard. Today, we did some exploration about using farenheit and celcius thermometers. We also read from our social studies text about the Pilgrims and their important voyage to America for religious freedoms. We learned about the importance of the Native American groups, who helped the English learn to survive here in America. In writing, we worked on how to include more descriptive words in our writing with a puzzle activity. I don't know how we are able to fit so much in our day, but we do. We are SO EFFICIENT!!

IMPORTANT!! PICTURE RETAKE DAY IS NOT TOMORROW - IT HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED TO NEXT WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 30. If you wish to have your picture retake, bring back all of the original picture package you ordered on or before the 30th. Thanks!
