Miss. Ali's News for November 17th

This week we talked about Thanksgiving and what it means to be thankful!!

On Monday, we made fingerprint turkey's and began practice in our Handwriting Without Tears books with the letter "C."

Tuesday, we had a fun and messy time making Tootsie Turkey's using our feet to make the body of the turkey!! We drew colorful feathers around the turkey, and even put on some funny googly eyes!! We also practiced forming and counting the number 5!

Wednesday, we made a turkey Popsicle stick puppet with colorful feathers, and we continued practice with the letter "C."

Thursday, we learned some new song and dances with Miss. Vanda in drama and reviewed our theatre vocabulary words we learned last week! We also made beautiful Wreaths of Thanks that are hanging around our classroom!

Friday ended our week with Shabbat and a letter of the week project for our letter "C."
