Thanksgiving Family Feast

We finished off our giving thanks and family unit with a family feast.  Parents joined us for turkey, gravy and all the fixings. 

 The children even made all the pumpkin pies for the feast.

 Here is some picture of some of the art we did throughout the weeks.

Thankful Tree

Get your little ones thinking about what they are thankful for.  Here is a fun art activity that the children can do after you have had a group discussion on thankfulness.

 During small group have a discussion on what makes each of us thankful.  Have the children draw a picture of what they are thankful for and write down what each child said.

I am thankful to all of you that read and support my blog by leaving all those wonderful and thoughtful comments.  Here is a freebie to say Thank-you.

All you will need to do is make copies and laminate so that the children car write and wipe on them. Use them for a small group activity or add them to your writing center for writing practice.

Monthly Madness Planning Blog Hop

 What do you have in the works for the month of November? 

I like to plan for a month of activities so that I am not caught with nothing to do,  but I still like to leave room for all of those teachable moments.

We will be starting off the month by talking about families since Thanksgiving is near and family is a big part of that.    

 How many people are in your family?  Graphing activity

 Children will be writing and drawing about their families and their homes.

 The month will end with many different activities centered around turkeys.
