Thanksgiving




A holiday is always a nice excuse to have an unusual lesson with the kids. This time - Thanksgiving. A good way to learn a bit of english and look back at all the good things you’re lucky to have in your life.
For some of the kids, it was almost too difficult to choose : they had so many things to be thankful for. Others just decided they had nothing to be thankful for. Some saw a good opportunity to show their teacher love... which the teacher loved, obviously.
So we started by writing down a few “I am thankful for” sentences before I filmed each one of them reading their work . Here’s what they wrote :
Gezamaria : “I am thankful for my new bike”
Mauricio : “I am thankful for learning english”
Ana Luiza : “I am thankful for having Rosalie in my life”
Joao Paulo : “I am thankful for my teacher”
Giovana : “I am thankful for having a new computer”
Ana Beatriz : “I am thankful for my family”
Some were too shy unfortunatly to appear on the film.... But take a look at our very own thanksgiving film!
