The Hive: Thanksgiving Edition

Happy Thanksgiving, Wonderful K/1 Parents! I am hoping and praying that today is a day of rejuvenation and reflection upon all you are grateful for this day. I am thankful for my family and friends, as well as the amazing opportunity to be your super-star's teacher!

If your kiddo has some extra time over the extra-long weekend, they could get a sneak-peek and practice at the sight-words coming up this week:

Our essential question in "Journeys" reading this week: 

We will be studying Joshua and Caleb in Bible, have some fun water-experiments in science, and maps in social science. "Gingerbread Community" will be our theme all month long, as well as the Nativity story. Students will begin practicing their lines and songs for our Christmas production. In math, we will be applying and extending upon principals of subtraction. We will be adding technology to our math rotation, which has been going amazingly well!

The bees are going to love the gingerbread activities this month! 

 Our verse this week is one of my favorites!

Some Thanksgiving highlights from Sonshine: 

Have a blessed holiday and know that I am continually praying for you and your children. If you have any needs we may be able to assist with, prayer requests, or questions-please do not hesitate to email me! If you have a general question about school events, classroom procedures, or work coming up, you could also post a comment on this blog so that everyone can benefit from your question and the answer. Many times when one question arises, others are wondering the same thing! (: 

I am so thankful for you and the hard work you do as parents. Enjoy your holiday!
