Mayflower Fun!

Greetings! Happy Friday! I hope everyone had a great day to end their week. As I was preparing the room at the end of the day for next week, I realized that this was our last full week of November. Where has the time gone? 

We began our day with Mass. Today Fr. Brian talked to us about always being thankful for what we have and to show that thanks to God. 

We wrapped up yet another week of learning in Language Arts today. We used our oral vocabulary words in sentences, read long a words, spelled and read words with the contraction for not, and wrote sentences using our sight words. Finally, we took our weekly assessment. 

Library class was extra special today. The students picked their first colored dot book of the year. They know that they are to read their book and bring it back to school to take a test on it. They are quite excited to do this. Thank you for helping them with this. 

In Math class today we took our test on shapes. Next week we will begin looking at the numbers 11-20. 

In Science class today we talked about how objects can be grouped into solids, liquids, and gases. We took pictures and classified them based on their state. 

We finished up our Social Studies lesson from yesterday. We are learning about Thanksgiving and focused yesterday and today on the Mayflower. We read a story about the Mayflower. Then, using what we learned from yesterday and today, wrote about that voyage. We took our writing and added it to a craft. They look so awesome: 

In Art today, we created Indian corn. The students used Q-tips dipped into paint to design their corn. They did a great job. They were so quiet while doing this. Have a look: 

Have a wonderful weekend!
