This week, we had been exploring some learning about fiction and non fiction books with our Thanksgiving theme. Ask our little friends about some of the differences as we read our own books. With our non-fiction reading, we wanted to share some of facts we have learned about Canadian Thanksgiving:
He sailed to Canada from England and he was thankful for a safe journey. (Tom D)
We gather with our family for Thanksgiving. (Claire)
We get food on Thanksgiving. (Madelyn)
We have foods like turkey, pumpkins, squash and apples. (Raiden)
We are thankful for all the food we have. (Rowan)
We are thankful for the toys we get. (Ethan)
Thanksgiving is you eat food and pumpkin pie.(Jack)
We celebrate Thanksgiving on the second Monday in October. (Mrs. Herbert)
We celebrated the first Thanksgiving over 500 years ago. (Mrs. Herbert)
We did some art this week of fall trees with a focus on perspective and warm colours. They have also been posted to our Seesaw Portfolios as well.
Also this week, our Shared Reading was a poem for Thanksgiving called Thankful. We are becoming fluent and expressive readers.
We have had lots of Thanksgiving themed activities this week and more to come next week after we have celebrated this weekend!
We want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!! Enjoy your weekend!
