What an exciting week to be in Kindergarten! We are having such a great time learning all about the first Thanksgiving! We made Indian headbands and Pilgrim hats today to get ready for our feast on Thursday. Since we have so many fun lessons and special activities planned I have decided to not have Literacy Centers this week. Instead, the work that comes home this week will be taught in small group or whole group. I will continue to meet with my guided reading groups every day this week.
Today we had a very special lesson with Mrs. Hunt in the computer lab. You'll see the surprise this week! We have worked very hard on this in class!
Tomorrow we will continue learning about Thanksgiving.
On Wednesday afternoon our class will meet with Ms. Sayklay for Guidance. Thanks for sending in Rachel's Challenge links from home!
For Thursday please don't forget to send in your item for our Thanksgiving feast. (You can send it earlier if you'd like.) We will have our very own celebration during snack time as a classroom family. Parents do not attend this celebration. I'll take lots of pictures!
Friday is such a special day for us! The 2nd Annual Turkey Parade is at 2:00. The entire school has been invited so be sure you are here by 2:00. I will not need volunteers so when you come just find your spot in the building. The classes in other grades will sit on the perimeter of the cafe. Parents will be able to line up along the hallways in the front of the school, gym, library area and also in the cafeteria. Get those cameras ready!! If you need a shoebox or potato please let me know! Also, if your child's float is finished you can go ahead and let them bring it early and I'll store it in the room for you - whatever is easiest! Please pass along any pictures you take from the parade so I can submit them for the yearbook and post them here on the blog. We have many parents who will not be able to come to the parade on Friday. I'll be leading the kids around so I will not be able to take pictures. THANKS!
Please let me know if you have any questions! Happy Thanksgiving!
