Even though we only had two days of school this week - we still packed in a lot of learning and a
little bit *lot* of fun!
On Monday we created patterned headbands like the Native Americans.

On Tuesday we another story about the first Thanksgiving and created retell bracelets. Have your child share the story at home!
For snack, we learned about the history of popcorn, and made our own popcorn on the stove!

| First we put the oil and 3 kernels in the pot |
 |
| Then we put on the lid |
 |
| Next we waited and listened for the 3 kernels to pop |
 |
| PM class listening for the 3 kernels |
 |
| We added more seeds and voila |
