Not really...it's a Thanksgiving FEAST that was celebrated at school today, but Elena has been saying BEAST all week, which after being with 500+ Kindergartners, I could see that...HA!
The kids got to travel to different rooms for crafts and games, then six classrooms grouped together for a feast of snack food similar to a Thanksgiving day spread. Very cute! And Elena had earned "ROAR cards" (kids earn roar cards for good deeds and behavior, then they are entered into a drawing at the end of the week for each class) that ended up helping her get drawn the winner. She was so excited about that, especially when her class took time to applaud her efforts. I've never seen such a big, proud grin!
I was a helper in the Turkey Bingo room...try imagining 5 year olds hollering "BINGO!!!" a bazillion times. I have such utter admiration and respect for Kindergarten Teachers.
Pictures are of Turkey Bingo, "Line O' Turkeys", and gathering together. Elena is leaning over telling her friend Michael that she is thankful for snacks - they usually don't have snack time - and asking him if he is thankful, too. His response was that the dried cranberries reminded him of bird poo...niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. :)
