MARYSVILLE – This week we talked about Thanksgiving with kindergarten children at Kellogg Marsh Elementary School in Marysville. Many of them did not know the story of the party, although a teacher told them they had watched a movie about it.
The kids talked about eating turkey and gizzards and how cranberry sauce can taste like Jo's salad. We have also heard of a bull terrier named James Franco.
Students attend two different classes taught by Nicole Aune and Mindy Gray.
