Turkey Time!

This week has been crazy!! Observations, progress report testing and of course, lots of Thanksgiving related activities! Yesterday we made turkey hats just because we wanted to! I planned on making them for our Thanksgiving luncheon on Tuesday, but I was too focused on my observation to get them completed on time. I felt a little guilty because I had no academic reason for making the hats. but i decided, if you can't make a turkey hat in kindergarten, when CAN you make a turkey hat? The kids loved the hats and loved singing their nw favorite song while wearing them. Click here to download the pattern.

**Warning, this song is slightly annoying and will get stuck in your head for days! =)**

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Favorite Thanksgiving Book Linky Party

Teaching Blog Addict is having a Favorite Thanksgiving Book Linky Party. I cannot believe that Thanksgiving is almost here! It seems like school JUST started!

One of my favorite Thanksgiving books is Run, Turkey, Run! I'm reading it tomorrow for my observation (fingers crossed that all goes well!) If you haven't read this book before, it's super-cute! The turkey doesn't want to be eaten for Thanksgiving so he hides from the farmer in the pigpen, duck pond, horse barn, and trees. Students love to join in and say, "Run, Turkey, Run!"

I made a sequencing activity and a SMARTboard file to go with the book. I hope someone can use them! ♥
