Laura brought real foods such as sweet potato, cranberries, and a pumpkin pie so they could understand what their unknown words were. The class was pretty mellow but the students enjoyed it a lot and participated in reading various materials.

The students were very engaged in the material and they seemed to enjoy the lesson.
