November


This will be a very busy and quick month! We have this Thursday, November 11th off from school in honor of Veterans Day and Thanksgiving recess is November 25 - 26.

Pilgrim mosaics from math class.
This Friday, November 12th is "Friendly Friday". Parents are welcome to join us in the classroom from 9:15am - 9:45am. I will be off site this Friday at a school leadership meeting all day, but the guest teacher will still facilitate "Friendly Friday".
Students researched the history of Thanksgiving online and wrote down interesting facts.
This week we will be learning about Garage Band, the history of Thanksgiving and geometry and measurement. In accordance with Arizona State Standards we have been doing some functional writing and started writing some Thanksgiving recipes which will will revise and illustrate this week.

A little bit later this month we will be taking a virtual field trip to Plimoth Plantation, in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

As always, please contact me with any questions or concerns! :)
