Brandon's 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Miller, has a tradition of putting on a fabulous and very involved and detailed Thanksgiving feast and program. The kids choose to be either Indians or Pilgrims, make their costumes, study their parts, prepare the food, learn many poems and dances and have a great time doing so.
Andrew took this picture of his friend Andrew in Brandon's class.
Elijah's Indian vest was very detailed, beads and all! 
Each student had 3 speaking parts, Brandon said he was, at first nervous, but then not at all! He, and all the kids, did AWESOME!
BRAVO! MAGNIFICO! EXCELLENTE!The whole program lasted a little over an hour, complete with a Buffalo dance, bear skin "bear" roaming, and was preceded by a traditional Thanksgiving feast, from turkey to cranberry relish and of course pumpkin pie! Most of it was made by the kids and the rest by Mrs. Miller and the parents. After the program the pilgrims in the first picture above offered the guests homemade applesauce, cranberry relish, pumpkin pie and cornbread, all made by the students! The kids performed two more times on Tuesday for the rest of the school. Way to go!
