Tuesday

Tuesday...hum what did we do on Tuesday, this is how bad my memory is if I don't have pictures of it it's difficult to remember...sometimes I feel like preschool is such a whirlwind, it comes and goes so fast!!  I did take pictures, however my phone malfunctioned and I lost all my pictures.
Well lucky for you I have a backup brain...it's called a lesson plan.  And according to it, we read Thanksgiving stories, talked about what we were thankful for, learned the Thanksgiving story and made bracelets to help us remember the story of Thanksgiving :)!! I found the idea here, and thought is was too cute to not copy!!  Here is the poem:

Thanksgiving Story Bracelet

With this bracelet you will know
The first Thanksgiving that was long, long ago.
The Pilgrims set sail from far away
On the Mayflower with tall white sails.
They sailed many days across the ocean blue.
The seas were rough, but the ship came through.
At last they spotted land so green.
They were so happy they cheered and screamed.
The first year was so hard and black.
Many died and wished that they could go back.
But the Native Americans gave them a hand
And helped them survive in the strange new land.
They decided to celebrate in a special way
And that became the first Thanksgiving day.
They prepared a feast with turkeys brown
And red cranberries that they had found.
Yellow corn that they had learned to grow
And orange pumpkin pies, don’t you know!
But before they ate the turkey and dressing,
They all held hands for a thankful blessing.
