Thanksgiving Tidbits!

What a busy week as we prepared for our Thanksgiving Feast!

Here are some of the books we read last week.

We compared and contrasted Pilgrim and Indian kids long ago to children today with a Venn diagram. We included clothing they wore, chores, and games they played. Students made Pilgrim and Indian hats for the Feast of course.

The kids learned a Thanksgiving Reader's Theater that they performed for their parents and then they danced to the Turkey Tango.  It was a big hit!

Here are pictures of the Thanksgiving place mats we made. They turned out so cute!  Thank goodness for my room mom! She had all the pieces cut out and in baggies.  That made it so much easier for the kids to glue and put together since we have so little time in our day for crafts.
