Thanksgiving has really snuck up on me this year!  So this week you will need to let me know what you want to do for the next 2 weeks, if you have library on Tuesday or Wednesday.  Otherwise, I will only see your class once before Thanskgiving!
The choices for Kindergarten are:

1. The Trouble with Cauliflower-we will do a paper about foods we like and don't like
2. A Turkey For Thanksgiving (I love this book!)
3. All About Turkeys--we will be wondering about turkeys...
4. Eating the Alphabet -- a class book of food

During our technology time we will look up information about turkeys and will type something on the computer that we have learned.  I'm going to try using Microsoft Word for this--we will see how it goes!

Speaking of technology, my daughter put me on to a website that looks great for our kids!  It's called www.abcmouse.com and it has levels and keeps track of where the child is in the program.  It even supports the Common Core Standards!  It is free to schools, but it is designed to be used in the classroom. Click on the link on the top right corner that says, schools/teachers. If you would try it in your classroom, I would try to figure a way to use it in the Media Center as well.  Thanks!

For PreK this week I will read Milwaukee Cows or Wait! No Paint, depending on your class.  For next week I will read This First Thanksgiving (a counting story), or Thanks for Thanksgiving, depending on our time together!

Since I won't be blogging next week, I want to take this opportunity to wish you all:

 Happy Thanksgiving!
