This week we studied God's compassion and love for us. How appropriate for Thanksgiving week! We did special activities, including writing an acrostic poem of what we were thankful for and making tie- dyed leaves to decorate the poster of things the 4th graders are thankful for. We read about the first Thanksgiving for the Pilgrims and how the Native Americans helped them in their first year in America. We had fun making tie- dyed turkeys, and the students wrote persuasive arguments trying to persuade their teacher to eat something other than turkey for Thanksgiving Day!
