We finished our unit on "Community Helpers" in Social Studies and started a new unit called, " America our Great Country". To begin the unit we learned about Christopher Columbus and how he discovered America by sailing right to it!
 |
We made boats out of gourds and decided they did not sail as good as the Nina, the Pinta, or the Santa Maria!  |
 |
| The globe was helpful in showing how far Christopher sailed. |
 |
Next we learned about Pilgrims and how brave they were!  In Phonics we talked about alphabetical order and the kids arranged themselves from A-G.  We had a great time at recess on Tuesday and enjoyed the leaves and the sunshine!     Lastly, this week we had a great discussion about the things we are thankful for and made turkey place-mats to remind us of them all!    I even had lots of helpers to laminate the place-mats! |
