Friendsgiving

One year when I was in college, I lived in a house with an obscene number of people and we all pitched in to have a roommates thanksgiving dinner together.  This year, I helped Cole and his roommates do something similar.  Thus, I give you Friendsgiving.

On the menu:
Honey-baked ham
Sweet potato casserole
Green beans
Mashed potatoes
Dressing (It's technically only "stuffing" if it was in the bird. I learned that recently)
Mac and Cheese (apparently the boys are unsure of having noodles)

People to feed: 10

The Biology of Thanksgiving

This was a great lesson that I shared with my students on Friday about all the biology that coincides with how well your Thanksgiving food will taste as well as how to make sure to don't die from it as well.  It was created by a friend of mine and I'm happy to share it with you, too!

Always Ready for Christmas

Halloween tends to sneak up on me each year. But once it has come and gone, I am ready for the two feast-filled holidays of Thanksgiving and Christmas. As posted previously, my students and I have been writing one thing that we are thankful for each school day of November. This also connects with our IB Learner profile trait of the month: reflective. With two weeks down and one to go, we will have over 2,000 leaves and things to be thankful for.
