Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving brings with it many teachable moments and fun activities to celebrate gratitude and learn about early American history. Here, a turkey display made by our Kindergarten classes - its feathers showcase what the children are thankful for. Most listed their families or siblings, but here are some more unexpected things kids were thankful for:

"mac and cheese"

"my aunts and uncles" (spelled, very sweetly: "my ants and ankls")

"my fish"

"playing with my toys"

 

 

 

Three-year-olds in the Purple Room learned about the Pilgrims coming over on the Mayflower.

 

 

 

 

3rd and 4th graders created these beautiful teepees, complete with clothespin people to live in them.
