To prepare for Thanksgiving our class discussed what we are thankful for. The children had many ideas of what they are thankful for such as, their family, home, food, pets, the sun and sky, etc. They then made turkey puppets with the feathers telling what they are thankful for. We also read the book Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving. This story tells about a group of children that went to a farm and found out that the turkeys will be eaten for Thanksgiving Dinner. The children decided they didnt want that to happen so they rescued the turkeys by putting them under their shirts and taking them away to save them. The students practised their writing skills by making lists of foods they would eat instead of turkey. We created turkey paintings by using pastels and watercolour paint. We have many wonderful artists in our class! Take a look at the photos to see all of our creations!
