Our class had our own mock
election and predicted who would be President!
We also attended a candy bar debate presented by our buddy class. After listening to speeches, we voted for our favorite candy bar and Twix won
the election. We all got a Twix bar to
celebrate!
We had fun with Thanksgiving
writing and math activities, as well as several art projects. We had a great time making turkeys with our
buddy class. It was nice time to reflect on
what we appreciated about each person in our family.
We are so excited that we have RAD Kids next week! Please remind your child to wear comfortable clothes and shoes all week. We will have our RAD Kids graduation next Friday at 9:00. There will be more information during the week.
Our big question in reading has been "How can we work together?" All of our stories have revolved around this theme. We have learned about common nouns, proper nouns, plural nouns, and possessive nouns.
Our math unit is on mental math addition. We are practicing adding two-digit numbers in our heads. I love hearing all the strategies our smart kids come up with to find the correct answers. They are so creative!
We have been reading Jan Brett books this week, such as The Mitten and The Hat. The kids loved going to her website on Thursday. The link is on our blog.
Reading charts are due on Monday. Remember to have your child practice with Kids' College, too. The goal is 100 minutes each month.
Have a great weekend!
