Lesson Plans for November 7-10

      Second Grade has had a busy week in Reading of visiting different communities and neighborhoods.  This week's visit was "Chinatown" and we learned about new customs and traditions.  One American custom is celebrating Thanksgiving in the beautiful month of November.  Our Bible memory work for the next two weeks will be Psalm 100:1-5 to show God praise for His many blessings.    A handout will be in red folders on Monday.   We will also be focusing on the American Indian in Social Studies.  A field trip on Tuesday, November 8,  to the Archives and History Building will teach us many things about the Native Americans who were here in Alabama.
