The week of Thanksgiving we finally filled our first marble jar. When we first started our marble jar we discussed as a class what reward we would like to have when we filled the jar. After a lot of discussion and a vote it was decided that we would have a pizza party. Some of the children shared with me that they did not care for pizza so, I decided that the pizza party would include a cookie cake! I would like to thank Laurie for providing the pizza and cookie.
Last week as a whole first grade we decided to check out the scholastics 'First Thanksgiving' virtual field trip. This was a live feed from Plimoth Plantation. It had some very good information about the Wampanoag people and how Pilgrims lived long ago.
On Friday we had a our harvest party. I am very thankful to all the parents who were able to come in and help that afternoon. We ate lots of yummy treats and played heads up 7-up! Thank you once again for your help and for all the wonderful food that came in!!
