Thanksgiving School Projects

An overwhelming number of papers and projects come home with my school kids. We haven't the space the keep them all, so I have taken to photographing some of the cutest things, and a select number of the ones that make the photo cut then find their way into the memory boxes.

Here are a few of Spencer's 1st Grade Thanksgiving projects:


Emma's preschool has been awesome this year. Her teacher is very creative, and she comes home with the most amazing projects. Presenting...Emma the Indian.


Here is her Pilgrim outfit.
*You will note that beneath each costume, Emma is dressed in a tutu. Standard daily wear around here. She changes as soon as she gets home.

And just to round out the preschool pictures, here is Emma from the week that they learned about dinosaurs and pretended to be paleontologists. She dug a dinosaur skeleton out of the sand, used a paintbrush to brush it off, all the while dressed in the hat and vest of a paleontologist. Her toilet-paper-tube binoculars were on hand for closer inspection of the specimen.

Wow! What cute projects! I like your idea of taking pictures of the best, and then culling through these photogenic ones to put into memory boxes. Clever! Emma is adorable - she is turning into a dark-haired beauty! Wow, kids grow up fast!
