Giving Thanks

We took some time on Friday to get our hands messy and reflect on what we are thankful for.  We started by making handprint turkeys.  The kids thought that painting their hands was super fun!  After the art portion, they had to write a list of what they are thankful for in their lives.  We brainstormed some ideas, and a few of their thoughts included: family, friends, shelter, teachers, siblings, pets, Thanksgiving, and food.  Although these students are only in first and second grade, they definitely show gratitude for what they have in their lives!
