Well today was FUN FRIDAY...
But first we had to get some learning out of the way! We took our spelling test...lots of great spellers again today...if it weren't for that darn bonus word "mopping" we would have had a LITTER FULL of SUPER STAR SPELLERS!!! Keep up that spelling practice. I am so amazed and proud of my little puppies!
Then we read one of my FAVORITE Thanksgiving books...
We got a jump start on questioning (comprehension strategy).
Pete is a clever, plump and perky turkey! How did he survive Thanksgiving? You'll have to read the story or ask your first grader to find out!
After we read we went ahead and made our own plump and perky turkeys!
OH, how I love them all!
TOP DOG
This week we learned a lot about Thatcher...
He was born in Utah. And he was told he was the cutest baby EVER!
He LOVES LOVES LOVES to swim and visit Disney World and ride Splash Mountain!
Thatcher is a wonderful PUPPY...please be sure to check out his personal blog by clicking on the link http://kidblog.org/HotDiggityDogGuy/
Yesterday, Thatcher's mom joined him for a YUMMY TACO BELL lunch!
SHOW US HOW OLD YOU WERE YESTERDAY,
Taylor!
WOW...what a BIRTH DAY! 11/11/11
This won't happen again until Taylor turns 107!!
Thank you all for reminding your little ones to be respectful of learning! We had a much better day today! I, too am getting excited for the holidays! LOVE LOVE LOVE spending time with family and friends...SO I understand BUT we've got to remember why we are in school!
I hope everyone enjoys their weekend...I'm already missing my puppies and looking forward to Monday morning!
