Even though we had a shortened week, due to our Thanksgiving break, we still managed to get a few things done. We read several stories about the first Thanksgiving and determined the differences between the things we have and the things the pilgrims had. Plus we made turkeys out of different kinds of cookies. We also started our preparation for Advent and Christmas by making a countdown chain.
