Speaking of food, it's THANKSGIVING!

Giving Thanks. There's something to ponder. Do you know the history of Thanksgiving- like, the real deal? Check out this site to watch a movie and learn interesting things about this special "All American" holiday! THANKSGIVING STORY

Now, wasn't that interesting? What did you learn? Why were they thankful? Why are YOU thankful? Or what are you thankful for?

The 4th grade after school club thinks that we should be grateful to be alive. Brittany is thankful for her family. The other Brittany is grateful for having a roof over her head. Lawanna is thankful for her sister. Tytiana is thankful for having a mother that cares for her. Brianna is thankful for her puppy. Dawud is thankful for the food. Sabastian is thankful for his dad.
