Happy Thanksgiving!

Our Thanksgiving dioramas

Everyone was so creative this week as they made their Thanksgiving scenes in shoeboxes! Clay food and animals, paper people and houses, a Mayflower ship, camp fires, and so many other unique touches made this a very engaging activity.

Our Adventures of a Pilgrim writing

Bird's eye view!

 I hope you enjoy reading their Adventures of a Pilgrim booklet as much as I did - they were so industrious describing sailing for the New World, working hard to make a home, and sharing a first Thanksgiving feast. Writing from the point of view of a Pilgrim child was lots of fun!
Here are some Pilgrims and Native Americans to add to our classroom time line:

Grades closed today and report cards will go home next Friday. I sent a note home about signing up for conferences on December 5th on our online site. I also emailed everyone. If you have any questions feel free to call or email. Looking forward to seeing you all.

Have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!
