Happy Friday!

We’ve been busy here in the classroom. We’ve been working on verbs, the relationships between of angles, polygons, and we started our exploration of Europe. On Wednesday, we had a visitor, Mr. Tom, from Alaska Fish and Game to talk to us about bears and moose and how to safely cohabit the outdoors with them. We learned a lot and got to touch and see some moose and bear skulls and furs.

On Tuesday, the 18^th, we will be going on a field trip to the PAC to see National Geographic Live: The Lens of Adventure. This is a program brought by the Anchorage Museum and showcases a photographer or filmmaker for National Geographic. For this trip in November, we will get to see Bryan Smith, a filmmaker who takes footage while kayaking. In January, we will go to another one for Kobie Boykins, a NASA engineer who takes photos of Mars. We will be leaving at 9:45 and returning around 12:15.

Denali will be participating in a holiday food drive for the Salvation Army. Each classroom will be collecting different items and then compiling them to make a donation on November 21^st.  Our classroom’s items are:

-Canned Corn

-Boxed Mac and Cheese

If you happen to at the store and have some room in your cart, please help us spread some holiday cheer! Thanks! J
