Throwback Thursday to Thanksgiving

Here are videos (that I thought I lost but just recently found!) of some of our Thanksgiving activities from November.

This is a choral reading of Psalm 100 written by me using the King James Version. We presented to the whole school during the Friday morning assembly before Thanksgiving break.

I found a fantastic writing project on Teachers Pay Teacher via Pinterest. The kids wrote persuasive pieces. In their writing the kids pretended they were turkeys writing letters to the farmer trying to convince him not to eat turkey for Thanksgiving. Then they decorated their turkeys with disguises. This is by far one of the most popular projects of this school year!

After each of the kids read their persuasive letters in class, they paraded their turkeys in disguise in all our lower elementary classrooms.
