Monday 11/25

Brr!! What a cold day!  The kids wanted to stay in for morning recess-I don't blame them!  Remember to make sure your child comes in appropriate outside gear as they will go outside for lunch/recess and often morning recess.

Started our morning with Weekend Writing.

For Reader's Workshop, the children worked with one or two other buddies to read a book and stop during it to ask questions/notice things about the pictures.  Last week we worked on using our "Eagle Eyes"- Ask your child to show this to you during their reading at home.

Math- The kids danced to some math songs about counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s.  I'm putting together a playlist and I'll get that out to you soon... Mostly focused on the 100s chart: 100 chart puzzles and 100 chart tile fill-ins.

Social Studies-Anansi and the Sky Kingdom: Ask your child about the lesson they learned.  Added a page into their Africa book on Book Creator.
Centers: finish-up and a few centers about Thanksgiving.
Read-Aloud: What did the turkey eat for Thanksgiving?  Luckily not a human like many of the kids predicted!!

Reminder- 12:00 dismissal on Wednesday.  No lunch at school.  Please send in a bigger snack!
