FULL of Thanks!!

We want to let you know how THANKFUL we are for you and your children. We are blessed beyond measure. They bring us so much joy every day!

We started off our very short week by seeing our buddies in the Wax Museum.  We were impressed by how much they knew about the American Revolution!
Thanksgiving Centers!  We practiced our subtraction facts by making Subtraction Turkeys:
 We worked on a couple fun Thanksgiving crafts:
 
 
We made chains detailing the many things we are thankful for:


 
 We worked in our Phonics Book: 
And we practiced writing good sentences!  The packets came home today, so you will be able to look at everything we've practiced. 
In Math, we played a fun Pilgrim and Native American game with dice:
And reviewed part-part-whole and fact families using dominos:
 
In Social Studies, we shared our Mayflower suitcases from last week and read a story about the First Thanksgiving. 
We also had a great time at our DONUT PARTY for winning the Buddy Run Spirit Award! 
We missed you, Gage, Margot, Max, and Blakely!!  Safe travels to everyone who is traveling this week!!
