Thanksgiving Celebration Feast Tomorrow!

Just a reminder that tomorrow is our Thanksgiving celebration feast! Lunch will be from 12:30 to 1:30pm, we will start in our own classroom, then move through the other classrooms to fill our plates with goodies, and meet in the multipurpose room to eat together. Food can be dropped off with your child in the morning or brought a little bit before 12:30, whichever works best for you. I hope you all can make it and help us celebrate together! After lunch we will be watching a short presentation we put together about what we are thankful for. We've been working hard and we are really excited for tomorrow! Hope to see you then!

Happy Friday! We’ve been diving into our state research and learning about the writing process of rough drafts and revisions. Homework menus and spelling word lists are coming home today, but they will not be due for two weeks, on December 2nd, since next week is a short week with Thanksgiving. This will give everyone a little bit longer over the holiday week to do homework and practice their spelling words.

This Wednesday, the 27th, we have our primary Thanksgiving celebration feast from 12:30-1:30 PM. We hope you can join us for lunch and a short reflection on what we are thankful for in the classroom afterwards. We have been working on writing about what we are thankful for and will be sharing our work after the feast. Lunch will be potluck style and families are invited to bring in a main dish, side dish, or dessert. It can be something special to your family, a dish you always have at Thanksgiving, a cultural dish, or anything you want to share with us. I hope you can come and celebrate with us!

Upcoming Dates:

  • Next week’s snack schedule:


Monday: Danielle

Tuesday: Liam A.

Wednesday: Talia

  • Wednesday, November 27th: Thanksgiving Celebration at 12:30pm!


 

  • No School on Thursday, November 28th and Friday, the 29th for Thanksgiving holiday.


Have a great weekend!

Happy Friday! It’s been a busy week in the classroom. We have been finishing up our works on North American and moving into a more in depth exploration of the United States. We will be doing State research and hopefully between all of us in the classroom, we can cover all the states. We have also been working on making sure everyone completes his or her math and language works every day!

A week from next Wednesday, the 27th, from 12:30 to 1:30 all the primary classrooms will be having a group Thanksgiving celebration/feast. Families are welcome and encouraged to join us! The feast will be potluck style. Families are invited to bring in a main dish, side dish, or dessert. It can be something special to your family, a dish you always have at Thanksgiving, a cultural dish, or anything you want to share with us. The dishes will be divided among the different classrooms and we will visit each classroom to get our food and meet in the multipurpose room for a community building feast! After lunch, we will return to the classroom and share some of the things we are thankful for. It should be a lot of fun and I hope you can be there!

Happy Friday! We are continuing to explore North America this week and will dive into a more in depth look at the United States next week by doing some state research and more maps. In grammar, we have been working on adjectives and how they can be used to add more description to our writing.

This week it has been getting chilly outside and I’ve been shaking some cold hands in the morning! Please make sure your child brings a warm coat, hat, and gloves to school for playing outside.

Please note we have a new allergy to nuts and keep it in mind as you decide on classroom snacks.  Thanks to all of your continual support both in the classroom and outside the classroom, it is greatly appreciated!
