Turkey Day Projects
We did a few projects this year both at a Thanksgiving Party we had and as part of our school day. Here are a few of the things we did.
M's Turkey hand print. I love displaying these little sentimental art pieces year after year!
S's turkey hand print (in brown) and then she added details to it.
B painted this pumpkin at our Thanksgiving Party. M painted a pumpkin on her tile too. When M wanted to add to her pumpkin, I accidently grabbed B's tile! Sooooo this is a collaboration of B and M's art work!
So what do you think? Did you do any Turkey Day Projects with your kids this year? If so, let me know...I need some good ideas to save for next year!

Co-op Performances and the Art Gallery
The last day of Co-op for this semester, several classes were able to demonstrate things they made or learned during the semester. S took a Cheer and Gymnastics class and they demonstrated a cheer they had learned. It was really good to see how well they did!
E took a painting class and they displayed their art pieces in an Art Gallery for everyone to come by and take a look.
She did some great pieces, learned a lot, and really enjoyed her teacher! She is looking forward to taking another art class next semester!

Riding in the Parade 2011
One of the things that S gets to do for being the Grand Prize winner is to ride in the parade!
She did so good waving and smiling and interacting with the crowd. Scot got to ride in the car with her. He said she was awesome!
What everyone didn't realize was that she woke up with a fever and a sore throat! She was a trooper though!
