So much to be thankful for!

We had a blast celebrating Thanksgiving at our school last week!

Mrs. Barnum's class read Turkey Trouble and then disguised turkeys.  Their disguises were really clever!

Mrs. Holdaway helped the students think about everything they're thankful for.  If you have time to check them all out on your way to the library, you definitely should!

Mrs. McMullin's Class made Gratitude Acorns in art with Mrs. Russell and our 2nd Graders made a tiny thankful art gallery.

We have so much to be grateful for at Santaquin Elementary!

Miss Dooley’s class learned about adjectives and transportation. They made a train accordion book to describe the different types of train cars there are. They then stood them up to look like the train was on a track.  Such a fun activity!
