Monday-Food Prep, etc list

Thanksgiving Feast  Monday, November 24, 2014 10:45-11:30

Mrs. Hoban/Keifenheim's  First Grade Classroom

WOW!  We have a wonderful “feast” planned for Monday!  The kids are very excited as we have started our “preparations” for all our guests.  We have special parents/family members who are coming! This event is very special to the kids and they are E-X-C-I-T-E-D!! 

Attached you will find the list of things we have assigned (per your request or I have spoken with you:-) for our Thanksgiving Feast.  PLEASE let me know if you are unable to bring your items so we can plan accordingly.   Please send these to school Monday morning.  It would be very helpful if anything that needs to be kept warm you drop off/bring in a crock pot. 

We just wanted to say a special THANK YOU to all our families who have generously donated time, money, food, and supplies to our Thanksgiving Feast.  We know how hard it is to commit to extra things like this with EVERYTHING else going on in our busy families this time of year.  We are blessed with a wonderful group of students and families this year and FOR THAT we are truly thankful for this season.

Thanksgiving Project!

Check it out!  The students created this AWESOME turkey project in Art class in early November.  We paired up our writing lesson to go with it!  How to catch a Turkey! Too, too cute!  The kids were very creative with how THEY would try to catch it:-)  Our 1st grade hallway is decorated with these..Gobble, Gobble!

More Museum Pictures!

Milwaukee Museum Field Trip

Our field trip from about 10 days ago!  It took a little longer to upload these pix as I was having some technical difficulties with my phone! The students were wonderful and very well behaved with their chaperones!  We have a truly wonderful group of boys and girls:-)

Dear Parents,

On Monday, November 24, from 10:45-11:30 we will be having a “Thanksgiving Feast” to celebrate the people and things we are thankful for this season.  Since we will be eating in the classroom, and not the lunchroom, there is no need to bring a lunch on that day.  We will have all the traditional fixings along with a Thanksgiving story or two! J  Unfortunately, due to the space in our classroom, we will have to limit ONE SPECIAL guest per student. (Hot items can be sent in crock pots, casserole dishes, etc.)  Thank you in advance and we hope you can come!

Below is a list of things we will need to make our feast complete.  If you wish to participate and help, please circle the things you would like to donate.  We will contact you if we have need to coordinate further. Please return tomorrow.J

Indoor Recess Fun!

This is what indoor recess looks like when it's too cold to go outside.  They have so much fun being creative!  They also do a great job cleaning up when recess is over. :)

The Magic Hat

This month we are studying the author Mem Fox.  We read the book The Magic Hat.  In this book the characters put on magic hats and turn into animals.  The students got a chance to draw their own magic hats and write about what animal they would like to be.
