The Freedom From Want by Norman Rockwell
It's time for our November Old School Monday! Our theme this time will be "Traditions," and we will be talking about family traditions, and the tradition of Thanksgiving.
When: Monday, Nov. 25
Noon-2:00*
Where: the usual classrooms, Vintage Faith Church
*Those children who are interested may bring something to share with the group about a special family tradition they have. It does not have to be specific to Thanksgiving--any family tradition will be fun to hear about! Those who have been working on the Book of Months might choose to bring a page from their book to share.
*Does any mom want to come prepared with a short book to read to the kids and/or a short talk about the real history of Thanksgiving/Pilgrims? I have a book I can read, but I know some of you have researched the sometimes forgotten history of this holiday, and if any of you have a passion to share, please let me know!
*I was not planning on this being a party or special food event this time, so as always you are welcome to bring lunch for your family if that is helpful, but there is no need to bring a food treat to share. : )
Questions? As always, please leave them in the comments below, so everyone may benefit from the answers.
*please note we will have to end a little earlier than usual, because I have to get to another homeschool event by 2:30. : )
