Abby, Sawyer & Daniel
The Blue Hall......what a feast!
To be politically correct (ugh!!), they had a moment of silence to 'reflect on what they are thankful for'......most of the kids immediately bowed their heads, closed their eyes & folded their hands.....obviously in prayer. Even Kindergarteners know that this is a time of PRAYER, not 'reflection'!!!
Indian Daniel cleaned his plate & had seconds of pumpkin pie!
The seven classes on the blue hall had a combined Thanksgiving feast. Each student got to choose whether to be a Pilgrim or an Indian for the feast. Each class provided one food item for the feast and shared with all of the other classes just as the Pilgrims and Indians shared food for the first Thanksgiving. Mrs. Walker told the story of the first Thanksgiving before they ate and explained how each food item on their plate related. There was also lots of discussion on all of the many things we have to be thankful for....... What a week in kindergarten- I had forgotten how much fun it is!!
