Dear Families,
Thank you so much for all of your help with our Thanksgiving festivities. Today we had our Thanksgiving feast with friends to enjoy our stone soup. We have talked about what Thanksgiving means and the things in our life that we can be thankful for. If you get a chance to stop in our classroom, please take a look at our “I am thankful for…” turkey barnyard.
A reminder as we enter our winter season and the weather gets much colder, please send weather appropriate clothing to school with your child—gloves or mittens, hat, boots, and snow pants (when there’s snow on the ground).
We will be focusing on the letters Tt and Ff and the sounds that they say over the next two weeks. We will also continue to work on our reading strategies: making connections with spinner spider and making pictures in our mind with picturing penguin.
In science and social studies we will begin talking about our families and family traditions to tie into the upcoming holiday seasons. We will also begin to explore our 5 senses. And in math we are beginning to identify and count pennies.
