We have had an incredibly busy week this week. We started our Native American unit of study, we learned all about verbs and we also practiced composing 2D shapes. On Tuesday we had a visitor from Willard North observe in our classroom. Next week we will have a special guest each day in our classroom during Tiger Time to watch us do PALs (Peer Assisted Learning Strategies).
SPELLING WORDS

COSTUMES FOR COMMUNITY
Don’t forget that Friday will be Duck Dynasty Day at Willard East! Students are asked to bring canned food to help stock the Willard Food Pantry.
UPCOMING UNIT—CAN YOU HELP?
Starting the Monday after Thanksgiving, the first grade students will start an economics unit. Students will earn tickets for good choices and pay fines (tickets) for poor choices. At the end of the unit, which will be right before winter break, each first grade class will have a class store. The first grade classes are now collecting items for the store. We are in need of things such as: boxes of crayons, markers, colored pencils, play dough, gel pens, sheets of stickers, bubbles, notepads, erasers, folders, small toys, etc. Donations will be expected starting next week all the way through December 13th. Please let me know if you would like more information on this need. THANK YOU!
