Sight Word Turkeys!   We make these adorable turkeys to assess our sight words!   I love this project because it’s such a cute assessment that’s fun for the kids but it also helps them see how important our sight words are.  We talk about  how we are thankful for the words we read!

These turkeys are available in my Gobble Gobble creation!

This week we introduce decomposing numbers and making numbers to 5.  Start by using red and yellow counters to make 5.   Do this whole group using large red and yellow counters made from craft foam!
