On Wednesday, November 16, we went to the Nashville Children's Theater to see" Junie B. Jones is Not a Crook." It was a great play and we learned that finders, keepers is not always a good policy! Below is a picture of us at the theater.

On Thursday, November 17, we had our Thanksgiving Feast and Powwow. Thank you to all family members who were able to come and be with us. We had a wonderful meal and a lot of fun at our Powwow singing, signing, and beating our drums!! Here are a few pictures of us for you to enjoy.

On Friday, November 18, we had a visit from a magician! He was awesome and really amazed us!! This visit is always a treat!!!

We hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!

KINDERGARTEN IS THANKFUL!

Happy Veteran's Day! All Kindergarteners made cards and drew pictures to mail to veterans this week to thank them for their service. We are very thankful for all the men and women who have made sacrifices for our freedom! THANK YOU VETERANS!

We have been very busy this week preparing for our upcoming Thanksgiving Feast and powow on Thursday. We will be dressing up in our Indian vests, headdresses, and necklaces and eating together. Our cafeteria will be providing the meal, which will be turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes, green beans, and a roll. We will be making a special pumpkin dessert in our classroom. We are asking that all students bring $4.00 to buy lunch on Thursday. All parents are invited to join us. We will be eating in the cafeteria from 10:40-11:10. Afterwards, we will be having our Indian powwow in the Eagles Nest from 11:15-11:45, where we will sing and beat our Indian drums.

We have been working on learning the 100th Psalm and will be saying it in Chapel on Thursday. We are also asking that the children recite it for their families at their Thanksgiving meal.

WE HEART KINDERGARTEN!

We  had a great time at our fall parties on Monday. We would like to thank all the parents who sent in food or came and helped out. The children had a great time "trick or treating" around campus, eating, and playing some games.

We have begun our study of the Pilgrims, Indians, and the first Thanksgiving. We have given each child an Indian name and this week we will be very busy making our vests, headbands, necklaces, and drums for our upcoming Thanksgiving Feast and Powwow. Please make sure to bring your cylinder can covered in the brown paper on Tuesday.

We have put up a teepee in our classrooms and we got to paint Indian symbols on it this week.
Each day a child is chosen to get to "nap" in the teepee. It has been a lot of fun to learn about the history of our country and the way they lived long ago.

 The Yankee Candle Sale is going on now through 11/ 15 but online through 12/31. Who doesn't like Yankee Candles? These would make wonderful Christmas presents! So get out there and sale, sale, sale!
