Our 24 students have made friends with a class near Christchurch, New Zealand through epals.com.  Not only are we having a blast getting to know our new friends, but we are learning so much about their country and culture.  They have decided to have a "Thanksgiving" after hearing from some of our students.  We had fun playing some NZ music while each student made a placemat for his/her epal's celebration.  Here are a few photos of students using a bulletin board to share information learned, making Thanksgiving placemats, and packing the box for their friends.  How fun!
