Giving Thanks

We've been talking about what it means to give thanks in our classroom and how different people all over the world give thanks in their country. We talked about the difference between Pilgrim and Indians and what their schooling, clothing and everyday life looked like compared to ours. Our class came up with tribal headbands with 3 colored feathers to represent what things they have in their life to give thanks for. We also created unique tribal names for each student in the classroom. I am so amazed at the amount of compassion and understanding my students have for others and how quick to come up with solutions to those who are less fortunate than we are. Our school is advocating a canned food drive this year to raise food and money for those less fortunate that need our help. If you wish to donate please send canned goods up through November 19th with your child so that our class can earn points for all the people we've helped. Thank you parents so much for your continued support.
