Happy Thanksgiving

We are thankful for our sweet Second Graders! 

This week we have talked about the things we are thankful for. We have studied about the Pilgrims and Native Americans and their place in our country's history. We have talked about how blessed we are to live the way we do today and how thankful we are for the families, homes, and school God has given us..

We are reading Mr. Popper's Penguins in class and are very excited to be going to Nashville Children's Theater to see the play. We will continue to work on this book unit after we return from Thanksgiving break.
