This week in Reading and writing workshop...
We will be thinking like readers as we explore Thanksgving books to learn more about the First Thanksgiving. Then we will take what we know and have learned and make our own books about the First Thanksgiving.

This week in Social Studies...
We will be learning about inventors and how their ideas changed our community. We will explore Alexander Graham Bell, Garrett Morgan and Ben Franklin. These individuals used an open mindset to try new things and take risks. They succeeded after many tries and now we can thank them for the inventions they created.

This week in Math...
We will continue our work with place value. We will compose and decompose numbers up to 120. We will compare numbers in isolation, with concrete objects and in problem solving situations.

Have a great week!
