Week in Review!
We celebrated that last month's Scholastic Orders got us enough points to get all of these new books for our classroom library! They include fiction, nonfiction, and a fun "I Spy" book. We are PUMPED!

I tracked our package along the break...it's due to get here December 2! Yay! Thank you to those of you who ordered :) Many of the kiddos were tearing (literally) through their orders for December.  

Last week was all about getting our brains ready to show gratitude for what we have (and a little bit of silliness). :)

Some of us finished our main idea and detail turkeys and got them up on the wall in time for Thanksgiving!

Here are those Turkey opinion pieces I promised you all!

"I think they should not cook it because the turkey is really fast!"

"I think Mr. Moose should eat Turkey because it is Thanksgiving."

"I think they should eat him because it is Thanksgiving."

"I think she would not eat them because Turkey's family will be sad."

"I think they should not eat the turkey because they want him to be their friend!"

We completed Thanksgiving Fact Files. Your first grader wrote about what they eat, what they want to know, what they know, and what they are thankful for!

We got to practice our measuring "endpoint" to "endpoint" with..TURKEYS!

and the grand finale of the week? Making Pumpkin Pie in a BAG! I hope the recipes made it home safely for you to try it out at home!

Have a great week! :)
