This week we had some focused activities around Thanksgiving. Students understood that Canadian Thanksgiving is held on the 2nd Monday in October, and is a harvest celebration centered on being grateful for what you have. Whether that be the food on your plate, the company you surround yourself with, or anything else that brings you joy, it is a time of reflection and happiness.
We read 'Happy Thanksgiving, curious George' book and 'Silly Turkey' poem where we got to enhance our vocabulary and learn sight words.
In Math, we incorporated a Thanksgiving theme in counting and skip-counting numbers.
In Arts and crafts, we decorated pinecone turkeys which was fun for kids to make and display!
As a special Friday activity, we made apple cinnamon-scented playdough which was a great way to incorporate sensory and science into the theme.
-A reminder that there is no school this Monday, October 9th in recognition of Thanksgiving.
Have a great weekend everyone and Happy Thanksgiving!
Ms. Emma, Ms. Swapna and Ms. Veronika
