Happy Thanksgiving....

Today is a day filled with in-class T-day celebrations. While doing an observation in a first-grade class (sharing food with their fifth-grade reading buddies), I witness this amusing scene:

Mr. T, the coolest teacher in school: Okay, Fifth-Grade Buddies, come up here and read your papers about Thanksgiving facts.

(One by one, kids read.)

Last kid: Thanksgiving is all about being with friends and family and giving thanks. So thank you, Mr. T, for bringing meaning to my life.

Classroom aide: Hey, wait, that doesn't sound like he wrote that by himself!

Happy Thanksgiving!
