I want to begin by wishing all of my classroom families a wonderful
Thanksgiving! This is always such a special time of the year.
Enjoy these days off with your family and friends!
On
Monday, we will continue our Inquiry Unit on the Pilgrims, the Native
Americans, and the First Thanksgiving. We will be trying some food that
the Pilgrims ate: dried beef ( jerky), biscuits, and pomegranate. We
will make our own butter to put on our biscuit by shaking cream in a jar
. We will compare a pilgrim child with a child of today on a chart
called a Venn diagram.
On Tuesday, we will spend our
day in pajamas enjoying "BOOKS". Guest readers, Buddy reading with Ms.
Alt's class, reading books on our ipads, and watching a book on a dvd
are all the fun activities planned for the day with the focus on
READING. Mr. Hill will be reading his favorite book to the whole school
in the MPR at 3:00.
Last week, we had our third ACE
presentation on the Strings Family of instruments. The children have
been working in an Inquiry booklet on the Pilgrims and Native Americans.
Here are some pictures from these activities.
