I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL and RELAXING  Thanksgiving!! We had a fun couple days finishing up our Thanksgiving unit. Here is a look at our super short week: Monday We practiced making groups of 5. We played a number game where students had to say a number and see if the turkey was hiding behind it. We dressed up as pilgrims!!  We read a very cute story called 'The Thanksgiving Surprise'. We wrote about where we would hide a turkey. (I will hide the turkey in the bath tub.) (I will hide the turkey in a pan.) (I will hide the turkey in my trampoline.) (I will hide the turkey in the bus.) We made pumpkin pie in a cup! I had some good cooks! We made this out of pumpkin spice instant pudding, graham crackers, and cool whip.  Yum!! We graphed whether or not we like the pumpkin pie. We recorded our data. Tuesday We started the day with practicing one-to-one correspondence. Today, we dressed up as Indians!! We made a vest, necklace, and headband. We played a fun turkey sight word

We had such a fun week learning all about Thanksgiving! We learned about the First Thanksgiving, Pilgrims, Indians, and the Mayflower! We worked hard this week and were very busy, but had a blast with so much new learning! Check out the first part to our Thanksgiving Unit! Monday We practiced finding the missing number starting at a given number. We continued to practice our patterns by determining which picture was behind the question marks. We had lots of fun with this! We made patterns on sentence strips with shapes and colors. We are going to turn them into Indian headbands and are keeping them in a safe place in our room for when we are Indians next week!   We also made pattern bracelets! I let them pick any pattern that they wanted to make. I had some try some ABCD patterns. I was super impressed!  It was so cute seeing my kiddos wear these bracelets all week long! The bracelets really meant a lot to them and I was so happy we made them :) We read 'The Pilgrim's First Tha
