Thank you all for coming to sing yesterday. Our song was difficult, but very meaningful. The children did an excellent job. For those of you who did not make it to sing, I need a written note to give to Mr. Luehring concerning this singing opportunity. We do keep record of the number of times your child sings and I need to hand in the excuses. Thank you.

This week we will be reading the story Bunny Cakes by Rosemary Wells. Along with the story, we will work with the letter A. Even though A is a vowel and makes many sounds, we will only concentrate on the sound as heard in apple. In math, we will work with the numbers one through nine. During circle time, we will talk about the Pilgrims and the trials that they went through. Our Bible lessons will be “God Teaches Moses” and “God Calls Moses.” From these lessons we will learn that God wants us to follow his direction rather than our own.

Thank you all for coming to the parent teacher conferences. I value your input and I will use the things that you shared with me to tailor the teaching in this classroom. I learned so much and I am grateful that you were willing to share this information with me. Let me know if I can be of help to any of you.

This week Thursday and Friday we will not have school due to the Thanksgiving break. If your child will not be here on Wednesday, please let me know. I like to do some special projects with the children and I need to know how many will be here.

I believe that is all. May all of you have a blessed Thanksgiving!
