"Each and every day, carry yourself with an attitude of gratitude."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Happy Thanksgiving!
This week's library class was focused on living with "an attitude of gratitude." Before our featured stories, I spoke about how from time to time we all lose sight of the many blessings and opportunities that present themselves in our lives. With Thanksgiving on the horizon, I thought it apropos to reflect on this idea, and to remind us all that we have much to be thankful for.
After reading the stories pictured above, a visit to our PebbleGo database to learn the origin of Thanksgiving, students were treated to a silly and festive song on guitar. "Except For the Turkey" got most involved singing and joining in the fun. Next, Mrs. Allerton added her crafty skills to the lesson by leading students in grades k-2 with creating a turkey of their very own. It was a great ending to an all around fun and festive lesson!
