Hello and happy almost Thanksgiving! I'd like to start off by saying THANK YOU to all of the parents who sent in items for our feast. The kids LOVED it and it was so much fun! I appreciate you and all that you do for the kids so much.
Last week we learned about the letter V. We made volcanoes and vases and continued our work with the -at family. We also finished up our unit in math and we will start the next one on Tuesday. We have been doing lots of Thanksgiving activities also, and we talked about the story of Thanksgiving and what it means to be thankful. We made pilgrims and Native Americans that each said something they were thankful for. We also made canoes with Native Americans in them and a fun turkey book! Today we made pilgrim hats, made butter, played a turkey game, and had our feast. It was a very fun day! Next week we will be learning about the letter C and starting our work with the -an word family. We will also start some of our Christmas crafts and activities!
Notes/reminders:
--A few parents have asked if we will be doing a gift exchange. We will actually be doing a book exchange and I will be sending home more information about it next week.
-- Book orders will be due next Friday. The online code for our class is GMXHN. If you would like the books to be a Christmas gift, please let me know and I will make sure your child does not see the books.
--This is just a heads up that we will not be doing snack after Christmas. All of the kindergarten classes stop snack at that point to start getting the kids ready for first grade, where they will not eat snacks every day.
--Your child will be bringing home a green tree to decorate at home next week. You can use anything you'd like to decorate it! Have your child cut it out and send it back by the following Monday (12/6). There will be more instructions coming home with the tree on Monday.
Have a fantastic Thanksgiving!
