Today was a day filled with excitement, hard work, and fun! We started off with our first ever Flashlight Friday. Who doesn’t like reading in the dark with a flashlight and a good book, right? Our next one will be near the end of the month. Stay tuned.

At 10:45, we gathered outside to move our bodies. It was a chilly morning, but spirits were high and we were ready to embrace our first annual Turkey Trot at our school. Our principal, Mr. C, dressed in a funky chicken costume, ran with us and cheered everyone on. I’m so proud of each one of you for completing the race and having a positive attitude. Awesome!

Finally, the afternoon was our Turkey Bingo event. Bingo cards in hand, we enjoyed playing along, hoping to win a prize or even a turkey! We even danced to The Bird Dance to stretch our legs. It was a lot of fun.

I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. I hope you have lots of family time together. This is a weekend when we come together to show gratitude for many things and one of the things that I am grateful for is the opportunity to teach students as special as all of you! See you Tuesday!
