Happy Thanksgiving!

Our Pilgrims!
Eels, turkey, squash may be on the menu!
A short and busy week is behind us, but we fit a lot of work and fun into it! We completed our Adventures of a Pilgrim writing, which gave us the chance to write from the point of view of a pilgrim child. They were so inspired by the books we read about pilgrims, and the online Plymouth Plantation site videos, and their writing reflected that enthusiasm. I know you will love reading about all the experiences 'they had' back in 1620!
Writing about the Thanksgiving feast in 1620

 Of course there was all kinds of excitement on the days we completed our Thanksgiving scene dioramas. It was a great chance to show off creativity as the kids thought of animals and food they could make from clay to add to their scenes!

Look what we made!
So many tiny details

We made a tiny campfire too









Look at that basket of food!
Do you like the little house?

Almost done!
Let's put this right...here!
Can we get this home on the bus?










Best day ever!
We wished Adele a Happy Birthday today for her weekend birthday coming up!
