An exciting beginning of the year!!

Partner reading. We love
reading with

Halloween |
 |
Mrs. W. and I dressed like Pete the Cat. I have on my
favorite color shoes-Purple Converse!! |
Toby Pup dressed as a little Devil. He started chewing up all of his toys so we thought this costume was fitting for him. Reagan dressed as Saige. She wants this doll for Christmas this year. Our students dressed as their favorite story book character. I decorated the Promethean board and Pete as a surprise to the kiddos:))
Thanksgiving.
 |
The kids really LOVED dressing
like a turkey and Indian to practice
their sight words. It was called
"Turkey Toss". They threw a stuffed
turkey on a sight word and read it to
their partner while wearing a turkey hat or
Indian vest. They had a BLAST!!
 |
| Happy Thanksgiving. Hi! Mr. Duffey |
|
 |
| More Turkey Tossing:))) |
 |
Love our Pete the Cats for Thanksgiving.
We are thankful for a lot of things! |
Our new "Toy" for our classroom. We got a Ladibug to go along with our Promethean board. We love it!
Thanksgiving Break at the Hightower House.
SNOW BEFORE THANKSGIVING IN GEORGIA! A first for me!!

| Toby ate the snow. |
 |
| We get excited over a little snow in the South;))) |

We made a Fruit Turkey for our
family get together. We had a blast.
Even Toby was enjoying it! |
