Thankful

The children were very excited to invite their families to join us for friendship fruit salad on the Friday before the Thanksgiving weekend.  In preparation we read some beautiful books on thankfulness and gratitude.  We spent time sharing and talking about the things in our lives that we are most thankful for.  Students recorded one of their ideas on a blank square piece of paper and drew a picture.  Then, they added their finished squares to a bigger piece of paper creating a thankful quilt.

The boys and girls each brought in a piece of fruit to share and contribute to the friendship fruit salad.  We created a poem about the fruit and the class made fruit salad books to take home.  There was a colourful variety of fruit!  The salad was delicious.  Thanks to everyone for sending fruit and for joining us that afternoon.  




They also made these adorable turkey cards by tracing their hands.  Gobble gobble.
