Pilgrim Puzzles & Props For Telling The First Thanksgiving Story!!!
I spent the time cutting all the parts for our little pilgrim girl's and boy's this last week and it was alot of work, but it was fun watching the kids put them together like a puzzle. I had examples of how they are put together and my students step by step formed their little people with glue sticks and crayons in hand and than added their own personal touches to each pilgrim!
I had enough for each child to make one boy pilgrim, one girl pilgrim and one Mayflower ship too. They could pick and choose what they wanted and much to my surprise many of the children did one of each.
I told them the story of the first Thanksgiving and that had a great time retelling me the story as they used their art for props!
We ended our day with a special Thanksgiving sweet treat made with a cookie and a miniture Reeces Peanutbutter cup that formed our pilgrim hats!! (Thank you Pinterest)

Our Block Creations...
So I found these wonderful foam blocks at the Dollar Tree and they are awesome! You get 50 blocks in the bag for a buck and I think the ideas will be endless to use them! I did not have time to come up with an idea on the spur of the moment, but I poured the blocks into the middle of the table and watched my students imaginations come to life.
It was exciting to see the many different patterns that were formed, sorting the different colors, the towers and walls that were built and the alphabet taking colorful shapes!!!
I am looking forward to many projects with cute little cubes!!!

DUSTING FOR FINGERPRINTS WITH MONTESANO PD!!!
Oh my goodness we had so much fun with Chief Vance when he came to spend some time with our Teea Timer's!
Chief covered 4 very important areas with the students which included:
1. Calling 911 in case of an emergency
2. Wearing a helmet when you ride a bike, skateboard or scooter, oh a horse too which was added by our very own Ava!!
3. Buckeling up in the car
4. Stranger Danger
The kids were very knowledgable and VERY FUNNY with some of their responses!
So one of the best parts of the day was when one of the students asked if the police ever get to "Dust for fingerprints" and Chief Vance graciously went and got the kit out of his car and we DUSTED FOR FINGERPRINTS....So much fun!! It was a little messy, but we like messy at Teea Time! It was like MAGIC!!! The best part about it was that all the children dusted for their own print and it was lifted on tape and placed on a card for them to take home!!!
Thank you Montesano Police Department!!!Teea Time recognizes the need to build positive relationships between our students and those who are in law enforcement. Thanks for being our friends and protecting our community!!! Thank you for the goodie bags too!!
