Happy Thanksgiving!

This colorful Thanksgiving turkey demonstrates the many things that my students are thankful for in their lives. Some of their answers were: family, friends, teachers, shoes, clothes, food, shelter, and toys. We had a lot of fun creating this turkey. Happy Thanksgiving!

Exploring Parks with Ranger Dockett

This week, we have been exploring the characteristics that make up an urban park such as Central Park. In the anthology, the students have been learning about what a day in the life of a park ranger is like. We have also created and decorated a recycling box in our very own classroom. Go Green!
