one little, two little, three little Indians....
This is our one little Indian boy. At school he is learning (okay, he already learned before Thanksgiving, I am a little late taking this photo off my camera) about Pilgrims & Indians. They played in teepees, made costumes, and learned about the Mayflower. Savannah also learned that, so she comes home asking me "how many people were on the Mayflower mama?" She proceeds to tell me how many were adults, children, 1 was born, how many died, about the conditions on the ship, how many days the journey met and...over and over...about Squanto. Squanto is her favorite. She loves that he told the Pilgrims to put fish into the ground to feed the corn seeds -she thinks it's awesome. She is my little encyclopedia of knowledge. Smarty pants.
Well, on Gage's last day before Thanksgiving break, they had a feast of Friendship Soup. On the days preceding, each of the kids brought in a can of veggies that the teachers miraculously turned into a vegetable soup...that kids will EAT! Gage said he liked it (shocking because it had VEGETABLES in it!!). Then again, his teachers told him that if he ate it, he would get a skittle. Well played, teachers.
