Thanksgiving Countdown!

Speech & Language:  This week we will practice the sound of initial /P/.  We will make a pumpkin pie craft and Andrew will be sharing a special pumpkin bread!

Sharing:  This week both the Winnie-the-Poohs and the Eeyores will share due to next week's holiday.

I enjoyed meeting with all of the Room K parents and sharing the new report card and recent assessments.  It is very rewarding to sit and talk in person and I appreciate all of you making the time to come in.

*A big thank you to Jesse for taking home our Room K carpet and cleaning it for us!  We will really appreciate having a new, fresh carpet on Monday!

*Thank you to our Art Trek parents this week, Amy and Dana, for helping the children to create skyscrapers. We added a literacy element by having the children tell a story about their skyscrapers.  All of the art is in each child's art portfolio.  You are welcome to look at it anytime and we are saving the art for a great display at Open House in the spring.

This week we will meet Ms. K with her "kaboom kick."  She loves to play soccer just like many of the children in Room K.  We will practice the letter sound and correctly printing both capital and lower-case Kk.  We will continue our language arts program including rhyming, journal writing, our alphabet dictionary, listening center, Benchmark reading series and workbook, and Handwriting Without Tears.

We will continue our November math journal and daily math pages in addition to playing math games and working with math manipulatives.

*Remember to practice the letters & sounds and sight words (aka high frequency words) we have learned so far.

Monday:  Let's Find Out! magazine, dance, Buddies
Tuesday:  Speech & Language, P.E.
Wednesday: Art, yoga, Council
Thursday:  P.E., Second Step (empathy training)
Friday:  Morning Assembly, Planet Bravo, Homework Review, Sharing, Science

Some upcoming things to think about:
Week-long Thanksgiving Break (have a great family holiday)!

Holiday Fun in Room K:
Holiday Program and Party (reserve time to attend our Holiday Program December 15th-there will be two shows approximately 8:30 & 10:30).  This is a minimum day with a 12:40 dismissal.

Our Party will be on Thursday, December 14th at 12:30, party planners can talk to me.  This usually entails cookie decorating!

Would somebody like to make latkes with the Room K children?  This an annual tradition and I can help out with more information.  We usually have a Hanukkah celebration with latkes and dreidels during the week before Winter Break.

Thank you all for your continual support of our Room K activities!
