We had a great week! The students are finishing up their unit on ocean habitats. They made a book titled "In the Ocean, In the Sea". They did such a great job with it that we set up a time to read to Ms. Hickey's kindergarten class. Please check out some pictures under my photo page of the students reading with their kindergarten buddies. Mrs. McCleskey has been teaching the students about Pilgrims and the first Thanksgiving. You will have to ask your first grader how the Indians helped the Pilgrims and what games the children played during the first Thanksgiving. In Math we have been studying measurement and comparing lengths along with counting by 2's, 5's, and 10's.
We just have two days of school next week before we are off for Thanksgiving break. There will be no spelling packet next week. I will be sending home a spelling packet on Monday Nov. 22nd for the following week. The Spelling packet will come home in the homework folders and the spelling test will be December 3rd.
We would love for you to join us for the Imagination Makers play on Dec. 8th.
*Mark your calendars! On Friday, December 17th the first graders will be singing some holiday songs in the cafeteria and decorating cookies. We welcome you to join us from 2:30-3:30pm.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Mrs. Freeman
