This Week’s News:
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We come back to a wonderful base story, “Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse”. Our focus letter is Pp and we will be talking about cause and effect. In science, we will finish our “Ladybugs” study and begin “Holiday Traditions” in Social Studies. Our math focus will be numerals 0-10 and using these numbers. We continue to build on our writing concepts and on putting details in our drawings. We will be reviewing word wall words.

Notes and Reminders:
We have several needs in the classroom: brown paper bags, holiday stickers, and dry erase markers. Thanks if you can help us with any of these! We are fine with snacks and playdoh right now.

Homework:
This week’s homework is a follow-up activity for our Social Studies unit on “Homes”. The children will count certain things at home. This paper is due back by Dec 7th. Continue to read at home and bring back the readers when ready.

Upcoming Events:
Book fair is coming so watch for details about this. It is always so much fun! Our Recipe Friday activity this week is “Bugs on a Log”. We will use celery, peanut butter, and raisins for this. As always, thanks for sending items that I ask for.

Thanks!
