Week in Review
This week we met Zelda the Zebra for letter Z. Throughout the week, we read books about Thanksgiving and how the Native Americans helped the Pilgrims and we made our 1st Thanksgiving book. We will use these to tell the story of the first Thanksgiving! We wrote about our disguised turkey and where we would hide if we were a turkey. We played many Thanksgiving learning games such as sounding out three letter words and matching them to the correct picture and putting the correct feathers on the correct turkey using beginning sounds. In math we explored ways to make ten such as 3 and 7, 5 and 4. We also learned about Veterans and wrote about things we are thankful for. Thank you veterans for your service!
