Thankful for Our Buddies

Today we had the opportunity to spend time with our third grade buddies! 
First, students colored a turkey and placed it on a chart to show their favorite Thanksgiving Day food! 
Then, the third graders read a Thanksgiving Day book to the kindergartners! 
Finally, everyone shared out one thing they are thankful for!
Happy Thanksgiving

Read and Munch

Thank you to our wonderful moms for coming in to read to us for our first Read and Munch! I loved walking around the room and listening to the parents questions students, make connections and explore the books as an interactive read aloud!
THANK YOU

This lesson was an opportunity for students to explore bread from other parts of the world. We talked about where the bread originated from and then got to taste it! Some bread we loved, some bread... not so much!
