Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving! During this short week I will be reading aloud several Thanksgiving stories. On Monday we will be reading "The Thanksgiving the Jacks Built" as a projectable book on the Smartboard. Mrs. Heilman's kindergarten class will be joining us for this read aloud and then we are helping the kindergartners weave paper placemats. We will also be reading "Gracias, A Thanksgiving Turkey". After reading this adorable story we will be learning Spanish words with Ms. VandeBurgt's, the bilingual teacher, help in order to create a book about what we are thankful for using Spanish vocabulary words. On Tuesday we will be visited by Mrs. VanDaalwyk's first graders. The students are excited for her class to join us as many of the students were in her class last year! Our class and the 1st graders will be completing Thanksgiving activities on the Smartboard and making a yummy Thanksgiving treat! Have a happy Thanksgiving and enjoy the days off!

The students enjoyed making "Edible Indian Corn" with the first graders--it was delicious and VERY STICKY! We also laughed a lot while reading poems from "It's Thanksgiving" by Jack Prelutsky.
ReplyDeleteYour website is wonderful! I used the same background! Did you find out how to add more posts to different pages? I can only add a second post to the home page. I also don't know how to change the layout of different pages. I would like to have math websites on my math page, reading on my reading, etc. Any ideas? :-)
