🦃🎈 Happy Thanksgiving from Ms. Richards’ Class! 🎈🦃
This week, our students marched into the holiday spirit by reading Balloons Over Broadway and learning all about the history of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade! After discovering how the iconic giant balloons came to be, our young creators designed and crafted their very own parade balloons.
Today, we proudly held our first-ever classroom balloon parade—and it was a huge hit! 🎉 The creativity, color, and excitement were truly something to be thankful for.
Wishing everyone a warm, joyful, and festive Thanksgiving! 🍁🧡

🦃🔍 The Case of the Missing Turkey… 🔍🦃
Mrs. Klem’s first grade class turned into master detectives this week!
Our students discovered that the turkey they invited to Thanksgiving dinner had mysteriously disappeared. Working in pairs, they completed task cards that reviewed reading, phonics, grammar, and math skills. With each task they solved, they earned a new clue to help crack the case.
After some clever detective work, the mystery was finally solved…
Squirrel took Turkey to the bakery at sunrise to get a pumpkin pie! 🥧🌅
Great job, detectives — case closed! 👏🕵️♂️🕵️♀️
