Thanksgiving in Our Class

November 24, 2013 By Seemi

Thanksgiving in our Montessori Class

We wanted to share some pictures from  last year’s Thanksgiving Feast. This is the one holiday we always celebrate together as a class.  It ties in so well with our study of North America, of plants and food, and is a culmination of so many of the practical life skills we’ve been practicing since the beginning of school.

Getting the Meal Ready

Preschool Thanksgiving Feast- Cutting Apples

Cutting apples for apple sauce

Preschool Thanksgiving Feast- Making Butter

Making butter by shaking heavy cream in a jar.  This takes some serious muscle!   (We’ll have to skip this activity for a few years due to severe dairy allergies in the room.)

Preschool Thanksgiving Feast- Homemade Butter

Preschool Thanksgiving Feast- Cornbread Making setup

Here’s our setup for corn-bread baking.

Lots of spooning, pouring, and measuring skills required here!  (We’ll need an egg-free recipe for a few years too!)
