We have had a great few weeks celebrating Fall, harvest, and Thanksgiving!
First we learned all about corn--how it grows, how it's harvested, and all the ways we get to enjoy it! We read Corn by Gail Gibbons and wrote our own teaching books.
We all agreed that popcorn is one of the yummiest ways to enjoy corn, and from the looks of our class popcorn graph, cheddar popcorn was our favorite!
We even Lego engineered some technology that might help a farmer get his corn from the field to the store. SUPER FUN!! We had trucks, ships, and even some flying crafts!
Next, we spent a week learning about the Pilgrim's, Indians, and the very first Thanksgiving; and even got to enjoy a special Thanksgiving Feast here at school!
This week has been dedicated to the turkey! We have read about sneaky turkeys, surprised turkeys, little turkeys, and fat turkeys! We have done some turkey writing too!
Anyway you carve it, I hope you and your sweet kiddos have a great Thanksgiving!
