Dear Parents and Students,
In Bible we have been reading from Genesis and Exodus about creation, Abraham, and Moses… We all loved playing a friendly game of Bible Jeopardy as we reviewed our Bible facts. We have finished our pictograph stories called “Rock Art” in history. We will be starting the next unit on early explorers next week.
We will be celebrating Thanksgiving next week in class by having the students fully prepare their own meal. On the menu will be Vegetable Soup, Pumpkin Spice Muffins, and homemade butter. Thursday, November 19th –preparation day…the students should bring their assigned ingredients to class with them in the morning. We will cut the fresh vegetables, mix up the muffins, and make butter.
Friday, November 20th - we will heat up the Vegetable Soup, rice, and share our meal.
Thank you parents for sending in your blue note letting me know when you can help. I will see a couple of you on Thursday or Friday morning. We will also be working on a couple Native American crafts. Thank you in advance for your ingredient donations.
