This week, we read the story, A Turkey for Thanksgiving by Eve Bunting. It's a story about Mr. and Mrs. Moose hosting Thanksgiving dinner for their forest friends and wanting to have a turkey for dinner. Unbeknownst to the turkey, the Mr. and Mrs. Moose want Turkey to come as their guest, not as the meal! By the end of the story, all the forest friends, including Turkey are enjoying a seat at the Thanksgiving table. After the story, we talked about turkeys and created a list of what turkeys can do, what they are, and what they have. The students then created a turkey along with a sentence about turkeys! We had a lot of fun creating the list about turkeys!
In math, many of our students are working on adding two digit numbers together with a partner and building numbers with cards and materials. The students are learning how to complete this work independently!
