This morning the students had a substitute while I attended a Science Training session at Peterson Nature Center. It was very educational and I got EXCELLENT ideas that I can't wait to implement.
While I was gone, the students worked on a variety of Thanksgiving tasks. The continued work on their Floating Down books, making a pointer to practice reading and narrating how they'd like the last page to end. They worked on the first square for their November Quilt. They also worked on turkeys which are two parts (tail and body) that can be attached with a brad and have a pivoting tail.
They also had music led by Miss Casselini and Mrs. McDonough with accompaniment by Mrs. Kwiatkowski.
When I returned in the afternoon I was greeted by a unified chanting, I've never seen them so excited. It's the little things that make the difference sometimes :)
