Thanksgiving celebrations

I realized that having that week off from school I hadn't posted. The week of November 15-19 we had some great Thanksgiving projects. I had the opportunity to make a trash can turkey which was DELICIOUS! You get some tin foil find put it on the hard ground, put a metal post in the center. Open up four cans of chicken broth around the fork, put the turkey through the fork and then place a metal trash can over it. (I forgot you have to dig a little hold under the foil to put coals.) You let the turkey cook for about 2-3 hours and you have the best turkey!
The kids had such a blast observing and watching the process for one of the centers that day. We accidentally set off the fire alarm so we were able to get November's fire drill out of the way! hehe Having us go in and out of the custodial doors to observe and check on it with the cold air coming in set off the sensor even though we were over a 100 yards away.

We made a very sweet turkey and the kids were very HAPPY thankful!


We also made little Indians and pilgrims. They turned out so cute!
We had them take a feather home and decorate it with things that their families enjoy and what they are thankful and we made a big family turkey on a bulletin board!

I am so very THANKFUL for my students and great staff to work with!
