Today E had his thanksgiving feast at school. Their class were the Indians and they made headbands with colored feathers. Another class was the pilgrims and they came into E's class for the feast. They had apples, oranges, grapes, bananas, olives (which he took), celery (which he doesn't like unless it's cooked),  broccoli, and carrots. At recess they played capture the bad guys. And during play time he was playing with a dump truck and slipped and kind of cut his lip a little in it. He cried but he's better now. 

Today E got dropped off at school by grandma and grandpa on their way out of town. He also made a turkey and worked on patterns. He also worked in the number 7 and spelled two words; fish and dog. At recess E and Theodore ran around kicking the snow off the grass. 

Someone got ahold of grandpas glasses. 

Today E worked on his colors. They also made some thanksgiving decorations for their class thanksgiving feast in Wednesday. At recess he played with Wesley and Theodore. They played capture the bad guys again. 

Thomas stopped and gave us another hat! C was super excited about it. And when e got out of school we showed him, he thought it was super cool!

Today E learned about beavers and how they use their teeth to cut down trees then take the branches from the trees and make their dams. He also reviewed the letter U. Today at recess he played Theodore, Fenton, Wesley and two little girls. They played a game where they run away from bad guys and monsters. They have been practicing Christmas songs for their Christmas program. 

Today was cold!! But E had a great day. They worked on the letter R and learned about raccoons. He drew one also. At recess he played with Fintan and Wesley and played tag. 

After school we went and took his picture by the alphabet crown wall. Him and his little buddy Theodore both got theirs on the same day. He was pretty proud to show me the wall. 

Today E reviewed the letter V and worked on the number 14. He also spelled mom and hat. He learned about smelly stinky skunks. He also played with hoodies at recess catching bad guys. After school we went and had lunch and played at theodores house. We got to know his brothers and mom. He had a ton of fun and wants to go back. 

E got his alphabet crown today!!! When we pulled up we honked and cheered for him as did the teachers. He has worked so hard to get this. Him and his little friend Theodore both got their crowns today. He has picked to go to Olive Garden as his prize. He did super good and is so proud that he got it. He also got his name on the alphabet crown wall at school. 

Today E learned about how exercise keeps our bodies healthy. He also reviewed the letters V and Q. He also colored a lady bug. He drew and colored himself running.

Today it snowed at E's school! Not much and it melt as soon as it hit the ground. He also worked on the letter J and Q and number 13. They talked more about food we eat, specifically fruits and vegetables. The fruits he colored are orange, apple, and banana. The veggies are potato, corn, and I think pepper. He forgot what it was. He also played with Theodore and Emmett at recess. They played a game where they chased off bad guys. He also nows all his letter's sound and will be tested sometime this week and get his alphabet crown! He is pretty excited about it. 

Today was our primary program. E did good. You know how when there is a primary program there is always that one kid who talks too loud and too close to the mic? That kid was E today. He was loud. He knew his part but loud. But since they had been working really hard on the program they did not have a lesson or sing songs in sharing time today.  They had them make this little craft. Each kid made one. E really liked doing this and it currently is hanging up on our fridge. 

Today E talked about the letter E. He also talked about where food comes from. He drew, colored and painted a farmer and his crops. Today at recess he played a game where he had to catch some bad guys. 

Today E brought home all his Halloween decorations that he made for his classroom. These are all painted (even the white ghost is white paint) and then he drew on the faces. 

Today E learned about the letter J. He worked on finding the picture that doesn't belong. They also talked about grocery stores. It's a store where you can get lots of food. He drew a picture of one. I think it turned out pretty awesome! And at recess he played basketball with Theodore, Fintan, Emmett, and Lance. Those are his little buddies in his class. And also today when they were lining up after recess he got tripped and scrapped his hand. He cried. He also said it made his throat sick....

Today e brought home a lot of things! They worked on the letter D and E. They also work on the number 11. So he drew 11 circles (but he wanted twelve so he made 12 circles). They also started talkin foods that keep our bodies healthy. So the top row is cheese, cup of milk, chicken leg (i think), two eggs. Bottom row is bowl of cereal, bread, and carrot, and an apple. He played with Emmett and Fintan during play time and his school had snow on the ground this morning!! At recess he just ran around.
