Thanksgiving Webcast!

The children in 4th and 5th Grade were lucky enough to participate in a live web-cast that featured a Virtual Field Trip to Plimoth Plantation; We met Pilgrims and Wampanoags (Native Americans) dressed as if they were living in the time of the first Thanksgiving and listened to their discussion about differences and similarities between them. Although the two groups were quite different they both had what to be thankful for. It was fascinating! For a replay, visit http://www.scholastic.com/thanksgivingwebcast . We will be following up with a writing piece next week - We will keep you posted.

We are sharing the abundance we celebrate on Thanksgiving with others! We will be collecting Kosher food cans to share with others who are needy. Please look out for the note that is being sent home over the weekend...
