Thanksgiving Writing and Literacy Preschool Lesson Plan

Catherine Wood, kindergarten teacher and creator of the blog, Mrs. Wood's Dual Language Kindergarten Class, recently shared a cute literacy project and craft that we think would make a great addition to your Thanksgiving season plans!

After reading Dav Pilkey's 'Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving, where a class trip to the turkey farm turns into a rescue mission for the children's eight new turkey friends, Mrs. Wood invited her kiddos to complete a fun prompt in response...

"Save a turkey! Eat more _________!"

...and select a dish they'd eat instead of a Thanksgiving turkey! After forming their response to the prompt {a great way to provide your kiddos with some printing practice!}, students were then invited to decorate their page with a colorful turkey.

We love projects inspired by literature! Your kiddos are sure to have a blast with this project - from story time to the literacy center! Be sure to head on over to Mrs. Wood's blog for some adorable project examples!!
