We finished our letter "H" this week and are trying in class to write our names still and recognize our letters. We learned two new shapes and made turkeys and hats. We talked about the pilgrims and how they went on the mayflower to Plymouth Rock.  The journey was long and the people were starving when they landed.  The Indians helped them with food, planting and having a great feast a year later that is now called "thanksgiving".

Happy thanksgiving to you and if you are traveling please be safe.

Another great week of learning.  Our letter was (f).  The children were taught about fire safety.  If you are on fire...stop, drop and roll.  If your home is filled with smoke, drop and crawl out to a planned place for each family member.  What is your plan?  At my home we taught our children to get outside to the mailbox and wait for us.  Do you go back inside a burning house?  No! And please have safety alarms in your house.  It is always better to be prepared if it ever happens.

This coming week we are moving on to the letter (g).  We will be painting our turkeys and celebrating two birthdays coming up.  We will have another great week of learning shapes, opposites, numbers and writing our names.
