Get ready to rake up some gratitude with the Thankful Tree Writing Prompt ! This Thanksgiving activity combines creativity and reflection to create a heartfelt masterpiece, and no actual leaves will clog your yard. Perfect for kids who are full of thanks (and maybe a little too much turkey), this activity invites them to write and draw about the people, things, and snacks they’re most grateful for. The fun starts with crafting their very own Thankful Tree. Each "leaf" becomes a blank canvas for kids to jot down what warms their hearts, like family, friends, and possibly an unhealthy obsession with mac and cheese. Once the writing’s done, it’s time to branch out with some drawing! Students can add colorful flair to their trees, turning their gratitude into an autumnal work of art. This activity is ideal for classrooms or as a family bonding moment that doesn’t involve fighting over the remote. By the end, kids will have a beautiful Thankful Tree they’ll be proud to display, and you’ll have a little peace and quiet, at least until dessert. Fun, festive, and packed with good vibes, this writing prompt is a must-have for spreading gratitude (and maybe sneaking in a little spelling practice). Let’s get thankful! Enjoy!

Bats Alphabet Cards
ELA, Holiday & Seasonal, Language Development, Pre-Reading, Holidays, Back To School, Kindergarten, Preschool, Activities
These bat themed alphabet cards are perfect for students who are learning about nocturnal animals. They make the perfect tool for students to learn the letters of the alphabet. What is Included: This set includes one capital letter card and one lowercase letter card for each letter. Ways to Use the Cards: Play a matching game by matching the capital letters to the lowercase letters. Attach a paper clip to a letter card and use a magnetic fishing pole to "catch" the letters for a fun fishing game. Use a sand or salt tray for students to practice writing the letters on each card. Have students find the letters that you have hidden around the room for a fun letter hunt. Place the letter cards in alphabetical order. Create a pocket char game where you place the cards on a pocket chart and hide a picture behind one of the letters. The students will guess which letter the hidden picture is behind. Add objects that begin with each letter for students to match to each letter card. When to Use: Literacy Center - Place the cards in a literacy center for students to match independently or with a partner. Morning Tubs or Baskets - Place the cards in a morning bin for students to work on while their classmates arrive to class. Small Group Activities - The teacher can pull aside a small group of students who need extra practice identifying letters to use these cards. These bat alphabet cards are a great activity for students to practice letter recognition at the beginning of the school year. They are a low prep activity for teachers to prepare for students. Simply print, cut apart and laminate for durability. These cards can be stored in a task box for easy set up, clean up, and storage. Skills Assessed: These cards, depending on the materials added, can assess both letter recognition of capital and lowercase letters as well as identifying beginning sounds.

Long story short, as soon as he walked into the room, I knew I was gonna like him, he just a twinkle in his eye and I loved his personality. . He was placed in the top group, did his work, and was an honor student. Sure he was outgoing, talkative, and questioned everything, but he was a wonderful individual who really cared about learning and his fellow students.

By concentrating on one new word per day, the "Sight Words Activity - Word of the Day" is a useful method for improving kids' reading abilities. With the help of this technique, learning sight words becomes fun and doable. A fresh sight word is taught to the class each day through a range of engaging activities. Students might, for example, come across a term in a phrase, practice spelling it, and then utilize it in their own writing. Students find learning to be less daunting and more pleasurable when it is divided into manageable daily chunks. To make sure the term is permanently ingrained in the student's memory, teachers and parents can use games, flashcards, and writing assignments to reinforce the word throughout the day. In addition to increasing vocabulary, this daily focus gives pupils more self-assurance as they learn new terms. Repetition together with a variety of exercises makes sure that sight words are maintained throughout time, which lays a strong basis for fluency in reading. In the end, this method helps young readers acquire sight words in a fulfilling and pleasurable way. Pdf file includes 10 pages. Enjoy!
