Thanksgiving is a time for reflection, appreciation, and a time to gather with families and friends to be grateful for everything we have. It is a time for laughter and enjoying one another’s company- a time to acknowledge and be mindful of the lives we live.

To help students understand the importance of this holiday many activities were incorporated into the students’ daily routine at Georgia Elementary School. Many parents joined their children to help celebrate this festive event in school. Diverse activities occurred throughout the week and children were exposed to a variety of learning opportunities for a deeper understanding and meaning of Thanksgiving.

The following is a snapshot of those events:

Target 3 – Flexible Learning Environments. FWSU will maximize flexible learning environments by redefining the school day, promoting learning experiences that extend beyond the school classroom, and fostering creativity, innovation, and differentiated learning opportunities for all.

Action Step – Develop opportunities for students to collaborate, innovate, create and conceptualize in all learning settings.
