Thanksgiving is almost here! I am looking forward to our Thanksgiving Pageant on Monday, November 21st. Mrs. Hansen has put so much work into this program and it MY highlight of first grade! Be sure to mark your calendars for 9:30 and bring your cameras!! You won't want to miss it! Remember to send in your item for our Thanksgiving feast this week.
We will be making Pilgrim and Indian costumes on Wednesday. If any family has pheasant feathers for our headbands and would like to donate them, I am sure the students would love to have REAL feathers. I could use some extra hands on Wednesday as we take on necklaces, vests, headbands and hats! I could also use a parent to cut out the Indian vests and have them ready for Wednesday.
I hope you are finding the homework more meaningful and less stressful. Remember that first grade homework consists of reading, counting and spelling! As our schedules get busier during the holiday season, take every day learning opportunities to reinforce these skills. They are all around us: shopping, cooking, driving, sending out cards, etc.
