Book Clubs, Scottie's Neighborhood, Thanksgiving, Math & Science Night and Junior Achievement11/20/2018 Our week was full of activities and fun as we head into the Thanksgiving holidays. We have our "book club" groups on a regular basis. Students read books on their level and discuss. In Social Studies, we have been learning about goods and services. Each student created a store for "Scottie's Neighborhood" and described what they do. We enjoyed some great Thanksgiving stories this week. After reading A Turkey For Thanksgiving, the students put the events in order. We made some creative turkeys, too! One of our wonderful kindergarten teachers let us examine some of her Native American artifacts. It gave us a real world connection to their way of life. We enjoyed our own Thanksgiving gathering of Pilgrims and Native Americans. First, they worked in groups to make the butter. Then, it was time for a feast! Thank you to those that came out for Math & Science Night. It was a lot of fun! We used those ideas to play card games and make our own Turkey Hideouts! We enjoyed a day of learning with some students from Dulles High School, and the Junior Achievement program.

AuthorI am a retired First Grade teacher in Texas. I have two children, two daughters-in-law, a grandson and granddaughter. Our beloved pup, Rocco, went to heaven this year. He was 15 years old. I've been married 37 years. I would love to hear from any former students! Archives
