Hello everyone!

Yesterday was Thanksgiving Day, so we took advantage of the beautiful message that this holiday has to introduce this special American celebration in our English classes.

Children learned new vocabulary such as family, friends, food, turkey, pumpkin, pie, thankful and celebration. We spoke about what Thanksgiving means and why people take time to appreciate what they have.

We also enjoyed listening to a couple of Thanksgiving songs and dancing playing the “FREEZE” game with a fun Turkey!

We also shared what we are thankful for… 

Their answers were sweet, sincere and full of joy. Here are some examples:

• “Thank you for my family.”

• “Thank you for taking care of me”

• “I am thankful for my toys.”

• “Thanks to my friends because they play with me.”

• “I am thankful for my teacher.”

• “I am thankful for my pet.”

• “Thank you for my home.”

Thanksgiving is not only about food, It is a time to be grateful and think about all the things we have.

This holiday reminds everyone…

to be kind, help others, and appreciate what we have

It is always wonderful to share and appreciate the little things…

Happy Thanksgiving!
