Pie, anyone?

What's your favorite Thanksgiving pie? We like Sweet Potato Pie! A big thank you to Emily and her mom for bringing a real sweet potato pie. It was delicious!

Center Time


In centers, students work independently to practice what they've learned. Sometimes we use funny props to lighten things up. Nathaniel is finding all the words in our room that contain digraphs. (Well, I'm pretty sure that's Nathaniel!)

The Gratitude Campaign

November 11 is Veterans Day. In class we talked about the meaning of the holiday and watched a short movie. To all veterans and those currently serving, thank you. Thank you.


Looney Tunes!


Check out the do's from Looney Hair Day. Thanks to Lindsey's mom for a great picture!

Cartouches, Crowns, and Collars






Our pharaohs visited the pyramids in Egypt. They wrote their names in hieroglyphics, made a mummy and decorated the sarcophagus. They even "Walked Like an Egyptian" down the hall and through a 6th grade classroom!
