Thanksgiving Feast Updates

The kindergarten team has met to discuss more detail about the Thanksgiving feast. Due to the additional PE time in the MPR, the amount of kindergartners, and with the tight school lunch schedule, we were unable to host the Thanksgiving Feast the Wed. before Thanksgiving as planned. We are looking at Friday, Nov. 21 in the afternoon for our Thanksgiving performance and have a potluck of homemade dessert and have a social afterwards.

On Wed., Nov. 26, with our students only, we will be having Stone Soup. I will send more information about that and what items we will need for our soup! :-)

Happy Thanksgiving!

Is blood red or blue?

Since we were on the topic of colors, someone on Friday wanted to know why our veins were blue...I wasn't sure if it was due to "exposure of air" (someone overheard in conversations) since the internet was down, but due to further investigation at http://www.globalclassroom.org/blublud.html,

"Blood is *never* blue. Blood is described as dark red (venous) or bright red (arterial). Our veins look blue because we are looking at them *through* our skin. The blood inside them is dark red and it doesn't reflect light very well."

Thank you, internet! Wow, when there is no electricity, you realize how much you depend it!

Classroom Wish List

Visit: Our Classroom Wish List

I am very excited to announce I found a website that I could post our Classroom Wish List of items we need! I am hoping with this website, we won't run into duplicates. This is my first time using this website program, so please bare with me!

From what I gather, it does not look like you have to be a member of Listigator.com to see or check off on items on our class list.

If you are able to bring in the item on the list, please check off the box on the left hand side; please do not delete the item or category. Thanks! And if you rather just tell me what item you can bring in, then I can check it off for you...but I would always encourage you to try new technology! :-)

Have a good night!
