Thankful for all we have!

 Heaven. Stars. Family. Bible. Jesus. Friends. Teachers. A warm house. My grandparents. My dog. My mom. My Dad. School. The beach. The sun. Snow. Fall.

These are a few of the things that have spilled out of your child's heart as we have been reflecting on having a thankful heart over the last few weeks in our Gratitude Journals. God is SO good, isn't He?! It is truly a blessing having the opportunity to partner with you each day. Thanks for your love, support, and prayers for our classroom. I am thankful for YOU, for your investment in sending your child to HC each day, and for partnering with me to help your little grow to know and love Jesus. 

SHORT WEEK AHEAD:
We have a short week coming up! As a result, there will be no math homework or purple reading slip coming home next week. Continue to spend time enjoying books over break, but no formal homework will be collected. We have full days Monday and Tuesday, and no school Wednesday through Friday. Our current reading slip and math homework page are both due on Monday, November 22. 

BIBLE MEMORY: 
Continue to practice Psalm 100. This is a special Thanksgiving scripture passage--see if your child is willing to recite it for your family next week for Thanksgiving! 

WORDS OF THE WEEK:
Our words from this set so far: often, such, best, think, family, never, house, wait, same, ask, again, each
Next week's words that we'll be adding in are: begin, goes, together.
You'll see a blue sheet with these 15 words to practice in today's Friday Folder. We will have our next Spelling Test on these 15 words on Friday, Dec. 3 so keep practicing!


Jungle Explorer of the Week:
Adeline was our special Jungle Explorer of the Week! Thanks for sharing your poster and pictures with our class. We enjoyed getting to know you and learning that you love playing basketball and softball, reading and telling jokes to make people laugh, your favorite place is Florida, and your favorite foods are ice cream and pizza! We love that you want to be an artist when you grow up! You are so special to God and to us, Adeline, and we loved getting to know more about you this week! No Jungle Explorer next week due to the short week.

Lunch Helpers:
Thanks so much to those parents who have come in and helped with our Wednesday lunch coverage! I could use a few more after in December and January if you have time to come and enjoy some time with our fun second graders on Wednesday! Check out the link below if you are able! Thanks again!


Sledding Hill:
Along with the snow comes recess time on the sledding hill! South Side will be providing sleds for the hill this year, so please do not bring your own sleds from home. This will allow us to keep them stacked neat and tidy in the building, and give all students that want to, a chance to sled!
