Today was a busy but fun day in Mrs. Carreon's First Grade class. They had their Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Celebration today. Thank you very much for the donations, it was greatly appreciated. Mrs. Maher came in and read two stories to the class today. They also made butter in a mason jar-it was used on the toast during our celebration today. It turned out great! The class also thought of 20 things to be thankful this month!

Mrs. Green visited 1D's First Grade class today. She shared information about reindeer with us. She had a real reindeer antler to show. It was huge! We compared the reindeer with our cow, Jo Jo. They have a lot in common. When she was done sharing, we made our own reindeer. We love when Mrs. Green comes to visit!
