Thanksgiving Program-Wednesday Night-Please wear your Sunday best to the program. 
We are also in charge of the centerpieces for the tables, they are cute turkeys.
We will also have a little snack on the 16th with the Kindergarteners...Thank you to our room parents for making this so fun!

Reading- "Ettabetta is Seven" and "Toc's Chicken Pox" We are working on main idea and details. We will also read, "The Great Turkey Race" and talk about the parts of a story (Characters, setting, problem and solution).

Math-Practicing ways to subtract

Religion- We are Thankful
