Thanksgiving Luncheon

Thank you to all the parents who made our Thanksgiving Lunch wonderful! They truly enjoyed it. We hope you did too! (I hope I got everyone's picture, but I have an awful feeling I missed someone! The cafeteria was just too packed!)























Native American Outfits, Babies, and Dancing!

Our students were SO excited to finally wear their Native American outfits. They worked so hard on them! Parents and students did a great job with the head dresses. And we also made baby papooses. Ah- I loved it all! :)



Mrs. Davis, one of our PE teachers, taught us the Turkey Tango. It was so cute :)









I almost forgot about these pictures! I had some WONDERFUL help making these shirts! We couldn't have done it without theses sweet people! (I think I only painted one shirt. Oh, they made my life easy!)
Miss Katilin (long time friend)

Mrs. Hallum (my mom)

Mrs. Paula (wonderful family friend)
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! :)

Thanksgiving Art

Our Thanksgiving at-home project was to disguise a paper turkey so he wouldn't be found and eaten for Thanksgiving dinner. I LOVE these turkeys! Parents, you went over and beyond! :)

Minnie Mouse, colorful turkey, Santa, butterfly, football player, well-dressed turkey

Karate kid, Captain Hook, Saints player- Tracey Porter, Farmer

Christmas tree, Flavor Flav, Witch, basketball player

Present, police officer, ballerina, princess

Cheerleader, Minnie Mouse, clown

I loved our hallway! Disguised turkeys, turkey hand prints, and tee-pees.

One of our hand print turkeys. These are my favorite!
  


Another Thanksgiving decoration we did was a map. We are trying to study maps with everything we do since this is such a low score on our LEAP tests later in life. We looked at the actual world map to see that the Pilgrims came from England, sailed over the Atlantic Ocean and met the Native Americans in North America (where we live!) Here's our map :)
 



 We also studied how the Pilgrims and Native Americans dressed so we could color their clothes the correct way. They definitely didn't dress like we do!
