Happy Thanksgiving

I think that Thanksgiving is almost a forgotten holiday.  It seems to me, people have fun at halloween and then up go the Christmas lights and tree.  I don't hear anybody talking about Thanksgiving.  Thanksgiving is my favorite time of the year.  I love to spend time with my family and of course we eat fabulous food, but I also think about all the things in life I am thankful for. I am thankful for a roof over my head, food on my plate, and clothes to keep me warm.  People take this important needs for granted.  I am also thankful for the wonderful people in my life and my crazy animals.  I am thankful that I will have a lil' baby before I know it and I am thankful that I can go to school and get an education.  I know that I am very fortunate and blessed to have all this in my life.  It also makes me sad to think about these things because I think about the millions of people in this world that have none of these things, nor will they ever.  Thanksgiving is just a reminder of these things in life.  People should be thankful every day for what they have!

Facts Question Response is what we talked about in class.  I don't know why I am learning about this just now.  I think this a great way to comprehend and relate to what you are reading.  I will use this in my everyday reading and I will, without a doubt, show my students this.  I some times read and read and then forget what I read.  This is a great reminder to what you have read; you can refer back to your notes or your post-its.
