Teaching An American Thanksgiving

On Tuesday and Thursday of this week the Primary 3 class (Gabe's class) invited me in to teach them a bit about an American Thanksgiving. We learned a little of the history and the why behind Thanksgiving. Then we made autumn place mats to be laminated and taken home.
We finished with coloring sheets of the different Thanksgiving foods and then ate some corn bread muffins which was a new taste to many of the students.

I had fun teaching and learning a little more about the classroom environment in Northern Ireland. They are a great bunch of learners and very accepting of an American accent.

  2. Yep! I came home and told Cam that I missed teaching in a classroom environment, at least a little bit. Although, I wouldn't trade being at home with my kiddos for anything.
