1. Thankful One Pager: this has the potential to be low-tech for my kiddos that like to draw by hand, which I like. With the intense screen time daily, I like offering opportunities to do something low-tech. Last year, I shared this idea on IG the day I attempted it because it was last minute and easy to do. This image is my hand drawn version from last year, and I will also allow my class to do one on Google Slides if they want.
4. Thanksgiving Research Flipbook: honestly, this is a maybe but I’m keeping it as an option. It’s a social studies/reading activity where students research the origins of Thanksgiving (including what really happened), how it became holiday, discuss family traditions, and learn a little about turkeys. It usually takes my classes about an hour and a half-ish in person.
What are your Thanksgiving teaching plans?
