Thrilling Thursday

Christ Light:  We reviewed The Widow's Offering and recited our memory treasure.

Reading:  Poetry and Book bags sent home tonight.
I read two of my favorite quilt books today.  Ask about "The Quilt Maker's Gift."  What did the king have to do to get a quilt?  What gift did he give to the quiltmaker?

I also read "Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt."  She made a map quilt that was used to help slaves escape to freedom.  We also talked about the secret "Underground Railroad" and Harriet Tubman.

Math:  Wow- your kids did a great job.  Ask to see the quilt squares we drew and then colored in math class today.

The Weekly Note was also sent digitally.  Check out Seesaw for more pictures!

THANK YOU to Dani D and Pat Zimmerman for coming yesterday to show us your amazing quilts.

Spelling:  I also introduced our new spelling pattern words- contractions.  We also read several sentences with the homophones your and you're and figured out which word is correct in each sentence.

Have a great night!
