Grissom 4th & 5th graders made very impressive “Thanksgiving Day Floats,” and KG students decorated balloons. Our Gr 1-3 students cheered them on as the KG, 4th, & 5th graders paraded through the halls. A joyous mini-version of @Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade! Happy Thanksgiving!

When students get the gist of a story, they do more than just read—they build comprehension, sharpen critical thinking, and write with clarity. The gist = the foundation for deeper learning. #literacy
