Rainey A

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and so is our feast! Although it won’t be in Blake hall this year, we’re decorating just all the same. This morning we read Strega Nona’s Harvest and discussed what we needed to do in preparation for the feast. 

​

What do we do to prepare for the feast?

​Cook- George 
Make, mmmm make vegetables - Lochie
Plates on the table- George
Yummy, yummy! - Elle

What can we put on the table to decorate it?
​
Apple seeds? Just apples!- Lochie
Muffins… cupcakes…- Marley 
Sewings?- Lochie 
Yeah, sewing! - Elle

From this sewing idea, we eventually stumbled on the idea of a table cloth. We found a box of fabric in the hall and set to work laying out our tablecloth design. The goal was to cover the whole table. ​

Feel this one-Violet
I want this one- Marley
You can put that one on the table too- Elle
Here comes the green- George 
George over there! You can see the table!- Lochie
Look at those stars- Violet
I’m putting it right here- Marley

​

After we planned our tablecloth design, we spent time playing games in Blake Hall, making messages, and painting.

Counting our apple sprouts. 

Look, I made an  A! - Elle 

Next week we will continue to work on our tablecloth and the rest of our Thanksgiving prep. Just a reminder that we have conferences scheduled for tomorrow, November 12 and Friday, November 13 so there is no school. See you all back on Monday!
