Veterans and Thanksgiving!

Oh my goodness - Thanksgiving has come and gone and 2018 is almost done!  Where has the time gone?  I apologize for the late post.  Here are pictures from the last few weeks of school.

We learned about Veterans, soldiers and heroes/community helpers.  Here is our Veterans craft. 

Here is our Thanksgiving door decor. 

One of the community helpers we learned about were police officers.  We talked about how they keep us safe and protect us like soldiers and firefighters. 

Performing at the Veteran's program. 

One of our letters we learned was the letter Nn.  Nn is for night. 

Another letter we learned was the letter Bb.  This story is a super cute Bb story.  Bear wakes up and is hungry for breakfast.  He can only eat something that starts with the letter Bb.  Some animals come that start with the letter Bb and they try to help him so they don't get eaten.  

During the story Bear got a 'boo-boo.'  We learned that 'boo-boo' starts with the letter Bb.  So we drew some 'boo-boos' on our bears.  We then put on bandaids to help make their boo-boos feel better. 

Bb is for bat and ball. 

We read a story called Turkey Trouble.  Turkey is in trouble because he finds out that he is the main course for Thanksgiving.  He tries all these different disguises to hide from and trick the farmer.  

The Kinders had to think of a new disguise for the turkey so they can hide from the farmer. 

Working on some handwriting.  They had to come up with a Thanksgiving grocery list.  They got to choose what they wanted for their Thanksgiving meal. 

Turkey Trouble!

It's been awhile since I have posted and I apologize.  I waited so I could include the short week that we had right before Thanksgiving. 

These last two weeks the Kinders have been BUSY!  It's amazing to see their growth already in late November.  They each are blooming in their own special way.

Last week we learned the letter Ii.  We turned our letter Ii's into iguanas.

Our candy corn that we have had up for awhile - just now got the picture of them. :)

One of our sight words was the word: he.  We learned that he refers to a boy.  We looked through magazines to find our 'he's and then we glued them into our journals. 

In Science we learned about WATER!  Here is our anchor chart that helped us learn the four bodies of water that we learned about. 

Sight word poem: for.  These went into our journals. 

The start of one of our turkey crafts. 

Almost done! 

Tada!!

Another turkey craft.  Our 'On Strike' turkeys! 

Before we made our turkeys - we listed some things we can eat/serve at Thanksgiving instead of turkey! 

They each had to choose one thing to serve besides turkey.  

Our Turkey door decor. 

We put our 'on strike' turkeys in the lunch room for all to see! 

Math center work.  Counting stickers on pumpkins, writing the number and color matching the pumpkins. 

Roll a turkey! - Math center

The Kinders had a homework assignment.  We read a story Turkey Trouble.  The turkey in our story does not want to be Thanksgiving dinner. So he disguises in different disguises to try to trick the farmer that he isn't a turkey. 

They had to come up with a new disguise for their turkey. They had a whole week to do this at home. They turned out turkey-istic! :) 

Making our grocery list for our Thanksgiving dinner.

After writing their grocery list they had to draw their foods on their plate. 

Native American and Pilgrim sticker fun!
