Fun Friday

Friday was a fun day for first-graders!  We started our day by reading our final chapter of "The Year of Billy Miller", our Global Read Aloud book.  We joined all other first grade classrooms in the library to celebrate and wrap up our month long shared reading experience.  It was great fun working with other classrooms to read this story and to partake in reading-related activities across classrooms.  Ask your child to tell you all about how the story ended!

Also, at the end of our school day, second graders from 2-Kennedy joined us in our classroom for a Thanksgiving themed activity.  With Thanksgiving right around the corner, we started our activity with a discussion of things we are thankful for, followed by "Roll a Turkey", a drawing activity.  Each student drew a turkey part by part as they rolled a number that corresponded with a certain  turkey body part.  The students enjoyed this activity and we can't wait to meet with our buddy class again!
