Thanksgiving Freebie! Tom Turkey's Terrific Tens Hats!

Wednesday, November 19, 2014


 With Thanksgiving just a few days away and a short week for me next week. (Only Monday and Tuesday) I thought my kiddos would enjoy counting by tens with this cute little turkey hat!


My children will cut out the hat pattern and glue it to a sentence strip. Next they will cut out and order their tens and glue them to their hat.  I use dot paints for fast and fun decorating!



If your not in the mood for hats your kiddos can cut, glue and order their numbers. For an added challenge have them write their numbers underneath.



Try ordering tallies to 50!
Enjoy!

Pilgrim Power and Tasty Turkeys!

Tuesday, November 11, 2014


I found variations of these little cuties all 
over Pinterest a few weeks ago. I just had to make them. 
They look so fun hanging in our classroom. 
We have been talking about how the Pilgrims lived
 in their new world.



We wrote about what the Pilgrim boys and girls 
did to help their families.


Tom Turkey Says 
"Eat cake..or cookies or pizza!"
 "Not me!"


 I saw these fun turkeys on First Grade Parade's blog. 
They are super easy to make!
I created a turkey's can, have, are ...paper plus
a writing paper to go with it.

 This is always one of my favorite bulletin boards!
It always makes me smile.



I love to see all the people and things they are thankful for!


They end up really looking like my kiddos.
Enjoy your holiday!
Big hugs to all the Veterans in my life and yours.








Long Ago.. Extravaganza!

Sunday, November 9, 2014


This darling turkey pattern hat is found in my


We are busy planning our Long Ago days in Kindergarten. 
We celebrate the day before Thanksgiving break. 
All Kindergarten classes participate together. 
We are fortunate here in CA that the weather is usually great. 
Yet in the event of rain our kids go from classroom to classroom freely.  Below are a few of the activities we do together.


Native American sand paintings


We use salt and powdered paint!


Every hunter needs an arrow made with 
a straw and paper triangles!


Next they are off to hunt for dinner! 
This is one of the most popular centers.


What's a Thanksgiving without a turkey!


Long ago fishing was a great way to get food for dinner. 
We fished for letters. 


Let's make some beautiful macaroni pattern necklaces.

 Tortilla teepees made with tortillas 
milk and food coloring. YUM!


We also make butter, log cabins from pretzel sticks, plant corn seeds and make clay pots. Parent volunteers run all the activities and do the face painting. We are all thankful to be at such a wonderful school!
