On the Mayflower!

Greetings! Happy Wednesday! I don't know about you but this week is flying by. It is hard to believe that we are only one week away from Thanksgiving. 

In Religion class this morning, we talked about how Jesus is the Good Shepherd. We call Jesus this because he watches over us and loves us just like a shepherd watches over and cares for his sheep. 

We began a new story today in Language Arts. With that came new oral vocabulary words and new phonics skills. Today we blended and read words with the digraphs sh, th, and ng. We worked on the skill of rereading as we read The Story of Martin Luther King, Jr. We also learned new sight words. We put our knowledge to work as we read Thump Thump Helps Out. After all that work in reading, we switched our focus to grammar where we talked about the difference between common and proper nouns. 

In Math class today we learned to count by 2's. 

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we read a story about the Mayflower. We then wrote facts that we learned from the story. We will add them to a Mayflower craft tomorrow. I'll post pictures then. 

Tomorrow is our Thanksgiving luncheon. Because of our feast, we will not have gym class!
