Now that's a 75 cent word!

So, in the classroom this week, my students were making their own cornucopias for Thanksgiving. (Out of paper, not basket weaving. That would be very cool, but maybe a bit advanced for grade 1 and 2 students). Anyway, they were having trouble saying the word and I heard a few different pronunciations.

My personal favourite, though, was Haley's. When she finished hers, she excitedly exclaimed, "Miss Smith! I'm done my cornucoppity!"

Happy Thanksgiving, Canadians!
