Thanksgiving Activities

This past week, I have had lots of Thanksgiving activities. One of the activities was involved in teaching them the surfaces about the masks.

Each of them created their own masks and write from simple sentences to one paragraph. It depends on the student's ability. It took them three days to put all of the masks and writing together before reading their paper to another class.

After they finished reading their paper to another class, the entire Deaf and Hard of Hearing Program started their first Thanksgiving feast. They all loved interacting with other students as well.
At the end, we all have to remind ourselves that there are many things to be grateful. Having the Deaf and Hard of Hearing program open along with a wonderful staff give a second chance for all of us. Many this program continues to many more wonderful years for the students.

I am impressed. Those masks are wonderful. They are real works of art. How did they decide who to make them? ... were there examples for them to look at
