This week in kindergarten:
* We will learn about the first Thanksgiving. We will read books, do Thanksgiving writing and celebrate with our feast on Tuesday.
Today we learned 2 big words: tradition and history.
Thank you for sending in your assigned items for our feast tomorrow! Please make sure they are ready to eat. (ex: cucumbers are sliced and in a bowl, mandarin oranges are out of the can, grapes are washed and in a bowl etc) Make sure to label any serving dishes so I can return them to you.
Our kindergarten feast is very low key and for the students only. We are in need of a couple more volunteers for set up, serving and clean up. Let me know if you can help. Volunteers should be here by 2:30. We will have our feast at 3:00.
* There is no school this Wednesday - Friday due to Thanksgiving break. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and extra time with family and friends!
* Next week we will begin a 2 week unit: Celebrations Around the World. We will learn about 10 different countries, find them on the map, learn about their culture & the holidays they celebrate and make a craft. I am hoping to also sample a snack that is authentic from each country. I have created a Sign Up Genius for snack volunteers. If you are able to help - you can google ideas for the snack or I can send you ideas from the past couple of years. The link for the sign up is below:
