Happy Thanksgiving!



This week has been pretty busy for us. We've been learning so much and having fun at the same time! Yesterday was our Thanksgiving feast. We shared it with Mrs. Seijas' PreK class. We were Indians and her class were Pilgrims. The kids had a lot of fun and shared their gifts they made for each other. Enjoy these photos of our feast! :)



We are thankful to have each and every one of you in our class and we'd like to wish you all a very blessed Thanksgiving! Enjoy your time with Family and Friends! And we shall see you on Monday, November 30th all rested up and ready to learn! God Bless & Take Care!
