For the past week, the Sunflowers have been excitedly preparing for our special feast. The students used their creativity to help make a banner for the classroom, painted place-mats, and created gourd centerpieces. The class wanted to make a contribution to the feast and decided to make mashed potatoes! During small group, we brainstormed the ingredients needed and where we could buy them. With great excitement, we put on our coats and took a trip to the supermarket. When we arrived, we picked out the perfect potatoes and located the milk, butter, and salt. After paying for the items, the Sunflowers proudly carried their bags back to school. After the potatoes were boiled the next day, we mashed the potatoes with hammers, and mixed the ingredients together until the final product was complete. They were delicious! The class also made a special book called "There Were Some Sunflowers That Swallowed A Feast." We hope you enjoy reading your copy at home during your Thanksgiving Break! It was so fun to have all of our visitors in our classroom sharing a meal together. We are grateful to have such a supportive and warm classroom community.
