Thanksgiving Fun

This week was hectic. It was American Education Week and there were lots of activities going on. But we did manage to get quite a bit done.
Towards the beginning of the week we worked on Thanksgiving stories. I found the stickers at my trusty Hobby Lobby location. The students did a great job on these.

Do You Like Turkey

This week we also did another round of graphs. Our question was “Do You Like Turkey?” We completed three graphs and the students completed a graph sheet to go along with our big class graphs.

It’s hard to see the picture below. But the sheet is a compilation of all the graphs we completed this week.

Turkey Addition

During math time we created and completed these addition turkeys. The students enjoyed creating their own addition sentences, cutting and creating these wonderful turkeys.

These are turkey addition and subtraction problems. Students completed the story frames, created both an addition and subtraction sentence and illustrated for both.

Thanksgiving With Our Families

During Writing workshop I took small groups of students and we completed this story frame about spending Thanksgiving with our families. I believe reading and writing are so closely connected. The more a student writes the better reader they will become and vice versa. I think they did a fantastic job.

Life in the Forest

Whew! Well I guess we did get a lot done this week. Our story this week was Life in the Forest. As a writing extension about the story the students wrote what they learned about animals that live in the forest.

  1. Millennials additionally alluded to as Gen Y extending in age from around 22-34 are America's future. Wrong reports express this specific era does not craving to possess their very own position. In spite of the naysayers, late reports and reviews demonstrate a decent partition of Millennials genuinely craving to be mortgage holders. Research observed that Millennial's land contributing is raising and will keep on rising; as 42% are more keen on home proprietorship than eras before them. cash advance
