November AOK

For our November project we will be making dinner the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break for local firefighters to show our appreciation for them.  We wanted to show our appreciation to someone that we were "thankful" for that didn't necessiarly get Thanksgiving off.  To go along w/ our Social Studies unit we VOTED on what we wanted to make them.  The winning vote consisted of:  spaghetti, green beans, bread, salad & chocolate chip cookies.  :)  Mrs. Turpin is going to let us use her room during her plan time to do the cooking.  The kids are SUPER EXCITED to cook!  My sweet mom has already purchased a lot of the items for the meal so my parents won't have to donate so much since it is a spendy time of year for families.  It's coming together nicely.  :)  My students have "officially" reached their 100th act so...we're going to have to VOTE again to see what we want our new AOK goal to be-I'm anxious to see what the kids decide!  I'll keep you posted!  ;)
