THanksgiving Feast 2008

Benton Grade School doesn't celebrate Halloween. Instead, they hold the Thanksgiving Feast. It is a fun day all day long. THe children go to presentations, craft time, story time, and of course THE BIG FEAST!!! Parents are encouraged to attend to either help or to spend the day with their child. Don't hear that in Oakland do ya! All of the children dress up as pilgrims and indians! CHristy took a bunch of indians to school that day - Madison was the only beautiful pilgrim!

Addisyn & Avery ready to attend the Thanksgiving Feast at school.

Braelyn doesn't want to be left out!!!!

Addisyn's class listening to an Ag in the Classroom presentation. She told about how they took a mound of dirt and planted the corn. The corn grew up and the pole beans wrapped around the corn. THe squash and pumpkins were grown at the bottom of the stalk to keep out weeds.

Avery and her good friend, Brooklyn. Not sure who the guy in the background is.
