Disguise a Turkey Project

Dear KLove Families,

It’s time for our Disguise a Turkey Project! The goal is to help our turkeys avoid becoming Thanksgiving dinner by disguising them as something else!

Students will work with their families to get creative and transform their turkey into a fun disguise. You can use construction paper, feathers, cotton balls, fabric, craft supplies, or any materials you have at home. Let your imagination run wild!

The project is due Monday, November 16th.

I have attached a few examples to help spark some ideas. These are just suggestions, so feel free to come up with your own unique and creative disguise!

I can’t wait to see all the wonderful creations our KLove friends come up with. Thank you for your help and support with this fun family project!

Monday Things to Know:

Week of November 9th-13th:

Reading:

We will continue Unit 3.1: Essential Question – What Rules Do We Follow in Different Places? in our Wonders Reading Series.

We will listen to the story, "How Do Dinosaurs Go to School?" to identify characters and discuss story elements. We will also read," The Boy Who Cried Wolf," to build vocabulary skills by asking and answering questions about unfamiliar words in the text.

We will review, identify, and practice writing the letter Ii, connecting the letter to its sound. Students will practice writing both uppercase and lowercase Ii, identifying words that begin with the /i/ sound, and listening for the /i/ sound in the middle of words. We will also continue identifying beginning and ending sounds in words.

Our new sight word is to! Students will practice reading, writing, and spelling this word while building confidence recognizing and using it in their reading and writing.

We will use our phonics skills to read, "Can I Pat It?" and "Tim Can Tip It." Students will continue practicing syllables, rhyming words, and CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words. We will also work on blending individual sounds to read words such as sit, tip, pig, hit, and pit.

Sight words: I, can, the, we, see, a, like, to

Math: We will start Unit 5: Measurement.We will continue practicing number combinations to 5 and begin exploring different ways to make 10 using objects, pictures, and numbers. Students will practice counting groups of objects and writing the total.

We will also work on comparing the heights of objects by identifying which are taller and shorter and putting them in order from shortest to tallest or tallest to shortest. Students will explore weight by comparing objects and identifying which weigh more and which weigh less.

Handwriting: We will be working on our FIRST names Kindergarten style. A capital letter at the beginning of our name and the rest lowercase. (ie. Deirdre Callinan).

Religion: We will continue on our Religion series; "Blest are We." Unit 8:"God Gives Us Friends ." We will appreciate the friends that God has given them. We will understand that God wants friends to care for each other. We will understand that friends are a gift from God.

Social Studies: We will continue our Learning About Long Ago unit by exploring what life was like in the past and how it compares to life today.

Long Ago Craftivity: Students will learn what life was like long ago and complete a log cabin house craft.
Cooking and Chores: Students will discuss how people cooked food and the chores children had long ago.
Jobs: Students will identify and discuss different jobs people had long ago.
School: Students will explore what school was like long ago and how it was different from school today.

Dear families,

This year, our class is excited to read with Scholastic Book Clubs! It’s a great way to build up your child’s book collection at home and help them improve their reading skills. And when you shop with Clubs, your orders earn points I can redeem for books and other classroom supplies we need.

Here’s how it works: I’ll send home flyers like these throughout the year. If you decide to place an order, you can do that through our class ordering page. Your books will arrive at school about 10 days after I submit our classroom order.

By teaming up with Scholastic, we’ll help your child become a more confident, independent reader—and we’ll build a classroom library all of my students are excited to explore!

Order due date: 09/30/25

Happy reading!
