Class 1 – Monday, November 22nd

Hi everyone and happy Monday! Did you know that most popular holidays in the United States are Christmas and Thanksgiving? This week is a thanksgiving week and we are going to do some activities to help us learn about thanksgiving vocabulary, tradition and have fun while dancing our turkey dance!

First we will have a little introduction into a thanksgiving tradition with this video:
