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.

New Word Bank

In Theresa A. Roberts book No Limits to Literacy for Preschool English Learners she states that we should be teaching children 12 to 15 new words a week.  These words need to be words that aid comprehension of story books, classroom themes and centers.

To keep us in check we created a New Word Bank board.  This board shows us how many words we introduced in a week as well as reminding us to be using these words throughout the week.  It is also a great way to show families what words are be learned so that they too can be using them with their children at home. 

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.
