Schedule for the Week of Nov. 25-29

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving week!!! This school year is going by so fast, I can't believe it is already time to celebrate Thanksgiving. One thing I know I am thankful for this year are all of my wonderful kindergarten students and their families! I appreciate all of the time and energy you put into our school and your children - it shows!!
I hope you are each able to rest, relax and reminisce about all of the things you are thankful for this holiday weekend.
For our three days at school, this is what we have planned:
  • We will continue to work on Reading Lesson 9 - homework came home Friday (Nov. 22), but is not due until Dec. 6th. 
  • We will be talking a lot about all of the things we are thankful for in our lives and work on a few Thanksgiving projects. 
  • In math, we are finishing up Unit 2 and will be taking the Unit 2 test after our long weekend. 
I hope this finds all of you doing well and getting ready to enjoy your long, nice weekend!
