This past week the entire school took part in a Group Language lesson around the theme of Thanksgiving. We thought it would be a perfect connection to tie it into our Gratitude Statements that are done at Assembly. Trish read Thanks for Thanksgiving and the K-2 students filled out a frame that read:
I am grateful for __________ because __________.
They glued this frame onto a piece of construction paper and cut out a leaf shape around their statement. The grade 3 students wrote their gratitude statement on an outline of a person which they coloured and added details to. All of the work was then displayed on a tree form in the main hallway.
The school has cards with children around the tree in the school park. We explained that this card is often used by staff to show our gratitude and thankfulness to people...another great connection.
I am grateful for the incredible community that I work in because I feel respected, supported and loved.
Happy Thanksgiving!
