No assignments this week except to finish up reading their books and get going on their book reports. If anyone is already done, we can do some presentations this week. Please let me know ahead of time by emailing me at cmahmhprz@aol.com.
We will be learning about the Wampanoag Indians this week and you may like for your child to view this wonderful video produced by Plimoth Plantation at http://www.scholastic.com/scholastic_thanksgiving/webcast.htm This week have them watch the Wampanoag Indian video and save the other videos for upcoming weeks.
The next 4 weeks we are going to be focusing on a Thanksgiving theme. There are two things I would like to do. First of all, I would like to have the children perform a Thanksgiving play the last week before co-op (11/16) during the lunch hour. We will be practicing this play from 2:30-3:00 the next 3 weeks. I will be inviting the younger kids to participate as well. Costumes will be simple and I will have more information about that next week.
Secondly, I wanted to see if there was any interest in doing a special lunch on November 16th, either bringing treats to share, having a potluck or something else. Let me know your thoughts and ideas on this. We could have the children each bring something for the church's food bank that week.
Please email me with your thoughts. See you Friday!
