Weekly Update

This week we focused on the letter N. Very appropriate for preparing ourselves to be Native Americans for our "mini" feast. To get ready, we talked all week about what the lives of Pilgrims and the Indians were like back in the 1620's. Not quite as easy as we have it today and the children would agree! We made headdresses and amulets for our costumes on Tuesday. We also made a Pilgrim to put on the Mayflower, a lovely bulletin board that we created in our room. We reviewed syllables, brainstormed words that begin with N, listened to Run, Turkey, Run!, colored and cut out turkey placemats, read our poem Nose and completed an activity to support it. In math, we played a hexagon game, made a picture out of pattern block paper cut outs, learned about the number 7, made a class shape book, graphed and played a spinning shape game with a partner. We were busy!!

Hope everyone has a nice weekend.....
