Little Pilgrims

We had some fun holiday inspired activities these past two school days.  On Monday we made our pilgrim hats and wore them all day.  They were a huge hit!  Everything is more fun with a pilgrim hat on.  :)


For math we had a probability lesson.  We had 1 green, 2 red, and about 5 brown turkeys in our bag.  We pulled 10 turkeys out of the bag and tallied our results.  We then discussed our results.  Here are a few pictures.

In reading workshop we learned about author's purpose and read a book about pilgrims.  Then my little pilgrims read from their leveled books.  Here are a few pictures of the awesome pilgrim readers.

We also made a cute Thanksgiving magnet to take home for the refrigerator.  I hope they all made it home safe and sound.

Here's Victoria working on her magnet!

We also made the cutest pilgrim boys and girls and wrote about things for which we are thankful.  Here are some pictures of the groups making the pilgrims.

Last thing that day we had a Thanksgiving inspired snack.  We made cupcake teepees.  They were so tasty!  Everyone enjoyed eating a little snack.  Here's a video of the pictures.
