Thanksgiving Story Braclets

Mrs. Roberts taught us how to make Thanksgiving story bracelets, so Mrs. Standlee purchased the necessary products so that our class could enjoy the project, too.

I hope that your child retold you the story with his/her bracelet.

Here is the story, in case you missed it.

We are studying multiple cultures and customs of various countries in our Christmas around the World unit this month. The students really enjoy hearing this song, so I promised I would post it for them to enjoy!

Thanksgiving Projects

I am so impressed with the products that came to our classroom for the students' First Thanksgiving projects. Come take a tour!

 

Here is Pilgrim Morgan displaying her Mayflower and talking about her journey across the Atlantic.

This is Saary's version of the Plymouth Plantation - made from cereal boxes.

He also made a bow and arrow that really works!
