FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Thanksgiving Movie Guide – The Hoboken Chicken Emergency”

by HappyEdugator
4th – 7th Grade

Watch the classic Thanksgiving movie based on the book the Hoboken Chicken Emergency by Daniel Pinkwater. Your students will probably recognize Peter Billingsley, the little boy from the movie A Christmas Story! Use this viewer’s guide for before the movie discussion questions, during the movie comprehension questions, and a writing activity after viewing. A fun Thanksgiving activity to do on the week or day before the holiday. Key included.

UPDATE: This resource has become outdated now that the movie is no longer readily available. (There are still some VHS copies available on Ebay and Amazon, but the movie is no longer available online or on DVD.) I was going to deactivate it, but in case someone has an old copy of the movie and wants to use it, I am going to make it a free resource.

Thank you!

Attitude of Gratitude
Attitude of Gratitude: Things I'm Thankful For

 

I woke up in a funk the other morning so I pulled the covers over my head trying to go back to sleep.  As I began to doze, my dog stuck her head under the sheet and I felt her cold nose on my leg. I knew that trying to stay in bed was futile, so I threw on some clothes and took her outside feeling frustrated and annoyed. As we began walking, the pain in my knee and heel started to subside and the phrase, attitude of gratitude came into my head as I realized how lucky I am to be able to walk, others aren’t so fortunate. 
********************************************
 
Multiple Ways to Multiply
When we spend enough time early in the year on place value and number sense, teaching multiplication and division go much more smoothly. Students grasp the concept of multiplication in multiple ways, so I try to introduce more than “the only way” to solve.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Horn of Plenty Shape Writing Thanksgiving”

by Margo Gentile
2nd – 5th Grade

Don’t you love those word-themed shapes? Here’s a way you can have your students make one without having to try a capricious app.

There are 2 versions of the cornucopia in this product.

The first is for younger children. Have the students write what they are thankful for within the blank spaces of the cornucopia. They may also color the picture.

The second cornucopia is more suitable for older children or those that are pretty adept at printing. The cornucopia on this page is outlined in very light gray. Have students use these as writing lines to record what they are thankful for. The final result will be a word-picture.

Hope you enjoy this freebie. Happy Thanksgiving!

Holiday Indulgence

By Deann Marin of Socrates Lantern

The holidays are fast approaching and if you’re anything like me, you will indulge in the things you love to eat and drink. Of course, I’d rather eat than drink, but there are some delicious cocktails that I can’t resist. It’s tough when you have to get up the next morning feeling physically and mentally unfit to do anything.

Pre-Kindergarten – 2nd Grade

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you enjoy this freebie from Smartkinderkids!

With this freebie, you get a brightly colorful and happy smartboard puzzle. Students can work whole group, small group, or individually to sequence the puzzle from 2-20 (skip counting by 2s).

This freebie can also be used as an Assessment Tool by teachers to determine if students can count by 2s.

If you like this product, please consider leaving positive feedback in my TpT store and checking out more Smartboard products! I love Smartboard files because I ensure that my students are actively engaged in their learning, are developing fine motor skills as well as technology skills. The biggest plus as a teacher, besides knowing your kids are learning and having fun, is that you don’t have to search for space to store the items as in traditional center games – just save to a thumb drive and VOILA – you are set for next fall. I hope you enjoy!

Sincerely,
Leigh Majer

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Thanksgiving Letter Discrimination for tricky b, d, p, & q”

by Karen Pritchett

Kindergarten – 3rd Grade

Freebie! Turkey themed letter discrimination page to help with frequently reversed letters. Students can color the page according the key or use clear bingo chips to save paper. Works great with small groups and independent centers.

I also tucked in a little math at the bottom of the page. (We have the visual color representation of turkeys…..why not?!)

I purchased little plastic containers at The Dollar Tree to hold the bingo chips. I think there were 8 containers in a pack. I packed each one with only the colors of bingo chips they needed for the activity. (I stole the bingo chips from several other games in my room.) Crayons also work if you don’t have a strict copy limit at your school!

Happy Thanksgiving!
