November 30-December 4, 2015 Week 14

I hope that everyone had a nice Thanksgiving!  I did!  I ate, watched TV, shopped, ate, cleaned house and ate! My oldest son turned 30 and we had a surprise birthday party for him!  I am so blessed and proud of both of my sons.  They are outstanding young men! I want to share a picture of them with some family and friends...

I love my family!

Before we got out for Thanksgiving we had some fun activities.  We celebrated our friends and made friendship salad.  Each student brought fruit to add to our salad.  We then pulled names and shared something special about each other!  

Thanks parents for sending the fruit! 

It was goooood!  

All students that passed reading the 2nd six weeks got to play in a Hot Shot Reading basketball shootout game!  The boys and girls did a super job hooping it up!  

We've got some superstars!  

Watch out NBA and WNBA!  

This week in learning we will read "A Place to Play."  It is a make-believe story about a community that builds a place for children to play.  Our reading skills this week are to sequence events in a story; blend and read words with vowel sound y as in long e and long i; identify verbs; clap syllables; and practice daily Saxon Phonics.

In Math we will continue to work on numbers to 99 using objects, and drawing pictures.

In Science we will investigate the natural world of rocks, soil, and water.

In Social Studies we will celebrate who we are.

Parents ~ I will not send a December snack calendar because we have lots of snacks that will carry us until Christmas break.  The next calendar will be in January.
