Happy Thanksgiving!

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!

Hi everyone!

This week, we learned a lot about Thanksgiving!

Do you want to watch the story of that smart turkey again? We watched it in Year 1, but those of you in Year 2 can also watch it at home and try to find out how Thanksgiving ended up for the farmer and his family! A slightly different ending! 😉

 

You can also make some interesting activities about Thanksgiving!

Do you remember the name and colour of the elements in the picture below?!

 

Have fun!

Hello, everyone!

This week, we have made a Thanksgiving Turkey in English class! Painting with our fingers is so funny! We will show them to you next week, as they were still a bit wet!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, as it was rainy outside, we had more time to play in the classroom, so we practised the Turkey Hop again and again (we love to hop and run): 

We also played with blocks and then picked them up by colours, singing and dancing 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have fun!
