Thanksgiving Books and Projects

This week we will continue to read our thematic book "I know an Old Lady who Swallowed a Pie". In addition, we are also reading two other books that are also songs you might be familiar with.

First we have been reading/singing "One Little, Two Little, Three Little Pilgrims". This book talks about the daily life of the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag. Through the pictures you see similarities and differences of their daily lives and finally there big celebration!

We are also singing/reading the book "Over the River, A Turkey Tale". This book follows the traditional song melody but follows a unique family to their celebration of Thanksgiving day.

Today, each student made a Cornucopia. Do not be surprised if your student comes home saying this big word! First we ripped brown paper and placed it inside a pre-drawn design. The students than colored and cut out the basket face. Lastly, they cut out delicious foods they could enjoy.
