Before Thanksgiving break, our classrooms were filled with gratitude and appreciation as students shared what they are thankful for. We heard everything from family and friends to pets, teachers, and favorite foods! Across first grade, our Thanksgiving theme was turkeys! Students created a wide range of educational turkey crafts that showcased their learning and creativity. From sight word turkeys to three digit addition activities to imaginative writing pieces, each project allowed students to practice important skills in an engaging and meaningful way.

Parent Involvement Day was a true highlight of the month. Some parents joined to help create autumn crafts and some read stories and introduced themselves to the class. Parents also joined us in the classrooms this month to read autumn themed books, and the students absolutely loved it. Hearing a variety of voices and stories brings a special energy to the classroom. We want to share our heartfelt appreciation for the time families have given to be part of classroom events. We are grateful for all the support you continue to give.
