Thanksgiving

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoys the extra days with friends and family. We have been very busy these last two weeks learning about turkeys, pilgrims, feasts, and what it means to be thankful. We have also been reviewing colors, shapes, and patterns. Last week we learned about the number 2 and letter Tt, this week we learned about the number 3. We also made pumpkin pancakes Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. The Wednesday class had a special treat, pumpkin pie with 3rd grade buddies for snack time. The 3rd graders were excited about making these pies on their own and being able to share them with our class!

We practiced our Christmas songs for the first time and will be continuing to do so until our concert on Dec. 19th and 20th at 9:30 in the morning. Invites were sent home which included a portion for you to sign and return letting us know your plans to take your child home with you following the program or if they will remain at school for the rest of the day. Please note, there is not going to be academics this day as the majority of students go home after the concert so do not feel your child will be missing out on anything if they do not stay here. Enjoy the extra time before Christmas!
