It is hard to believe Thanksgiving break is right around the corner.
Students have been learning about the ‘First Thanksgiving’ and what it means
to be thankful for everything we have in our lives. We have made (or will be
making) Pilgrim hats, Indian headbands, dream catchers, and turkey glasses.
Hopefully everything has made it home for you to see.
We are working on place value in math and will continue with this when we
return from Thanksgiving break.
In reading, all groups finished a guided reading book from the library and
worked hard to complete their centers.
Our field trip to Florida Studio Theatre was a big success. Students enjoyed
watching Rumplestiltskin and were very well behaved throughout the trip.
All first grade classes held a ‘Native American Rotation’ where students were
able to choose which Indian tribe they wanted to learn about and then went to
that class to learn some facts and complete a craft. Students had a lot of
fun.
I am very thankful to have such a bright and energetic group of boys and
girls. I am also thankful for the help and support I receive from ‘my
parents’ everyday.
I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving!
Please feel free to contact me at any time with questions or concerns.
Thank you,
Mrs. Simunovic
