Class Spotlight - 2nd Grade
On Monday, November 19th the 2nd graders partnered up with Kindergarten friends (and even some siblings) for a fun Thanksgiving activity! While reading a poem about Thanksgiving, students made a bracelet with different color beads that stood for important parts of the Thanksgiving holiday. A blue bead stood for the Mayflower, green bead stood for the land they spotted, a black bead stood for the hard times the Pilgrims had their first year, a brown bead for turkey they ate at their feast, red bead for cranberries they found, yellow bead for corn the Pilgrims learned to grow, and orange for pumpkin pies. It was a fun, learning activity! We look forward to spending more time with our new friends in the future!
