We kick off our turkey week with Turkey Trouble! After reading the story we will create a circle map of all things we know about turkeys!
We will make our circle map of D words and of course, we will make a silly hat! How about a duck hat for D?
We will write about what we’re thankful for using a predictable chart!
In math, we will continue working on addition and solving equations with pictures. This week will focus on small group instruction so I can address the needs of students in a more specific way. We will be using my Dino and Unicorn math packs again. This week I will be showing the students and equation and they will have to solve the equation on their white board.
Today’s turkey art project is one of my all time favorites! I love how cute these turn out and they look so good hanging from our ceiling. The best part is that every year, no matter what, someone gives the turkey dumbo ears!!!
Wednesday

Today we will write a recipe on how to cook a turkey. I’m pretty sure you won’t want to eat our turkey…just sayin’! I can’t wait to see how these turn out!
In math, we will continue working on addition and solving equations. I am focusing on writing equations with plus and equals signs and drawing pictures.

To do this, I assess the students on the sight words we know. They color their feathers and glue them onto the turkey!
