Fun DIY! Parents came in to help build the beginning stages of gingerbread houses for the 2nd grade class!
5th graders culminated our unit on the 50 states with a research and creative project. They each chose a state and found specific facts to create a float and then presented their findings to the class. They did an exceptional job on the entire assignment.
Thank you to Mike Blake, Love Phillips, and a crew of parents for spreading holiday cheer throughout the hallways of Greenwood!

Thanksgiving Assembly 2023
Kindergartners are Thankful! Kindergarten students listened to the book “Balloons Over Broadway,” which is about the puppeteer who invented the balloons for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade. They created their own “balloons” and had a Thanksgiving parade. Kindergarten students also celebrated with a “Charlie Brown” style Thanksgiving feast, complete with toast, popcorn, jellybeans, and pretzels. They learned that Thanksgiving isn’t just about turkey… it’s about being grateful, and spending time with family and friends. Happy Thanksgiving!
Showing Thanksgiving spirit before break!
Greenwood wishes you a Happy Thanksgiving, safe travels, and full bellies!
The First Grade Helpful Hedgehogs celebrated their Thankfulness Lessons with a feast supplied by parents.
Students made thankfulness hats, shared why they are thankful and created amazing Turkey’s to go with their Thanksgiving Writing.
