We started talking about what "being thankful" meant yesterday. We gave the children several examples and then went around the room and wrote on the board what each child said they were thankful for. We came to almost the last child and she responded with "I'm thankful for nothin". I just kind of stared at her for a second. My teacher responded with "really there is nothing in your life that you are so glad you have?" "No" this went back and forth a few times and she didn't come up with anything. I was just blown away. Maybe she didnt understand what being thankful meant, but the rest of the class understood and she heard several examples.
- a VERY thankful Miss Hansen!
