Thanksgiving feast

Thanksgiving Feast
Monday 11/21 from 11-1
Northside Aztlan Community Center

Please arrive promptly at 11am so that we can get the food in the kitchen and have the kids perform all the things they have been practicing.

This week was spent preparing for the Thanksgiving feast. We practiced our songs and play. We made our costumes and talked about what we are thankful for. The kids are so excited about the feast, they asked me everyday "is today our feast?" I love their excitement and I can't wait to share it with you all on Monday.

The Dragonfly class had a guest teacher on Friday. A nursing student named Megan came and talked to us about eating the colors of the rainbow. The kids really knew their fruits and veggies! We had fun listening to Megan talk about the role different veggies play in our diets and bodies. (i.e. carrots are good for our eyes) The kids completed a fun project with her, they colored fruits and veggies and glued them to a paper plate. This was a great craft to teach them about choosing fruits and veggies. I took some pictures with Megan's camera and when she emails them to me, I will post them.

Can't wait to see all of you at the feast!
