Happy Sunday! I hope everyone is safe and warm! Today I have lots of posts to share (if I do not lose internet), starting with this classroom Charlie Brown Thanksgiving party, themed around the movie "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving". We did not watch the movie in class, and it was honestly in no way connected to what we were studying. While Schulz's "Peanuts" comics and the classic Charlie Brown movies hold a dear place in my heart, I chose this theme because several students doodled pictures of Snoopy throughout the semester and seemed to like it. Plus, I have always wanted to have a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving feast with popcorn, pretzels, and toast with toppings (which I bought from Aldi), and jelly beans (which I forgot to buy for my class). I bought honey, peanut butter, Nutella (which was the most popular), and cinnamon sugar as topping options. I took my family's toaster for the day. The balloons were from Dollar Tree, and I doodled a picture on the board with Expo markers the night before. I planned out group station-type activities to do before each feast, so I put the desks in a circle. To make a mini tablecloth for each desk, I cut some regular-sized tablecloths from Walmart into about eight rectangles each.
