Happy Thanksgiving!


We want to wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Here are some activities we did to learn and celebrate
this tradition:

We made a list of things we are thankful for.

We learned about the First Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims
and Native American Indians.
We retold the story using a retelling bracelet.




We read a funny story about 3 silly turkeys.

Then, we retold the beginning, middle, and end
of the story using pictures.


We made "thankful" placemats for our Thanksgiving 
celebrations.



Friday afternoon, we enjoyed a classroom family
Thanksgiving feast before leaving for break.
We are so thankful for each other!
This is one happy classroom! :) 






Writing Captions


We are writing captions for pictures in Writer's Workshop.
Check it out! 

We used different turkey pictures and worked with a partner
to come up with funny captions for the pictures.
