Happy Thanksgiving

We had an AWESOME week learning about the very 1st Thanksgiving!  We learned that the Pilgrims came over on the Mayflower and made our very own Mayflower using our hand prints as the boat!

We also learned that Native American didn't write like we do today.  We used some of their symbols to decorate a Native American vest and a shape pattern to decorate a head-dress.

We also learned about the way Pilgrims dressed and made Pilgrim hats.

We made a special card to say "Happy Thanksgiving" to all of you and to show you just how thankful we are to have you.

Then we ended the week with our BIG Thanksgiving Day celebration!  All the classes gathered in Mrs. Jamie's Room and listened to the story The Very First Thanksgiving.

Then we headed over to Mrs. Tracy's room, where we enjoyed a popcorn snack and made a turkey cookie.  It was so much fun and the kids had a blast getting together with all their friends to enjoy their "feast"!

The kids worked so hard on their turkeys, and they turned out great!  Check them out!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!  See you on Monday for Picture Day!
