TECHNOLOGY THURSDAY

The children are so excited for Technology Thursday this week! I promised that as soon as I got home from basketball practice that I would post the sites they will explore in the lab this week. We always preview the sites on Wednesdays. I don't think Thursday can get here soon enough! I wished we had a movie camera running in the classroom so that you could experience the joy and blessings of reading Charlotte's Web. The children look forward to the new chapter each day. This story brings back many childhood memories as I too grew up on a farm. We didn't have pigs but we did have the most wonderful barn! My brothers and I spent many hours playing in the barn. I feel Christmas in the air....with snow in the forecast for Thursday evening!

TECHNOLOGY THURSDAY

Today is the 1st day of December! The children have been so busy learning that the schools days are passing quicker than ever. We are working on subtraction in math. The children use many different kinds of hands of counting tools to help understand what subtraction is all about. We will have 3 spelling tests this month. Continue to use the spelling city.com website to review and practice words. Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!
