The students practiced making letter I with wiki stix, as well as writing about things that start with I in their writing journals (igloo, ice cream, etc.). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&quot;The Letter I Song&quot; by ABCmouse.com\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mPlrmupZOvI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We also learned about turkeys!  We created books about turkeys in our small groups.  The turkeys were doing different things (under the tree, on the fence, etc.).   We also read books about turkeys!  We read, &#8220;Turkey Trouble,&#8221; by Wendi Silvano.  As we read the book, we talked about the title (name of the story), the problem, and the characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&#039;Turkey Trouble&#039; read by Marc Maron\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TzUS7UHXsd8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Next Week&#8230;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Monday, November 22: School 8:15-3:00<\/li><li>Tuesday, November 23: School 8:15-3:00<\/li><li>Wednesday, November 24-Friday, November 26: <strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">NO SCHOOL &#8211; THANKSGIVING BREAK!<\/span><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">December 2021 Calendar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/11\/IMG-3532-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/11\/IMG-3532-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/11\/IMG-3532-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/11\/IMG-3532-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/11\/IMG-3532-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/11\/IMG-3532-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/thompsonl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3392\/2021\/11\/IMG-3532-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Winter Fair: December 16, 2021<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Winter Fair is on Thursday, December 16!
