In this class, we will read the funny story "The Great Thanksgiving Escape" by Mark Fearing. It's another Thanksgiving at Grandma's. Gavin expects a long day of boredom, but his cousin Rhonda has a different idea. She wants to make a break for it, out of the kids' room to the swing set in the backyard! Will they manage to avoid the obstacles and find some fun before turkey time? Or will they be captured before they've had a taste of freedom? After the story, we will play an interactive game that asks questions about the story. Finally, the students will get a chance to draw their own Thanksgiving Escape plan, just in case!
