Over the river and through the woods, the TpT courses roam.

The FREEBIES are here. They’re bringing good cheer,

as all of them find good homes, hey!

PreK — 1st Free Thanksgiving Resources Cornucopia

It’s a cornucopia, so instead of just one, here are four fabulous dice games to choose from. One from Kindergarten Squared, and one from Jennifer Wiggins, a third from Scribble Doodle and Draw, and a fourth from KTeacherTiff. Turkey-riffic.
Some math resources for the littles include 123kteach’s Nuts About Letters & Numbers and PlayLearnTeach’s Preschool Thanksgiving Flipbook – Counting 1–10.
Numbers and sums are a big part of the early years so don’t miss Krazy for Kindergarten’s Turkey Round Up Relay, My Kinder Garden’s Sums of 10 Thanksgiving Addition Math Activity and Schroeder’s Stars Turkeys on Parade! Number Order Fall Freebie, and also The Brainy Boutique’s Turkey Tens Ordering Numbers activity.
More Thanksgiving math freebies to sample include Shauna Pocket Full of Kinder’s Oh, Nuts count the room resource, Kathryn Garcia’s Thanksgiving Three of a Kind and Forever First Grade by Lindsey Brooks’ Thanksgiving Equal or Not?

We’re thankful for FREE ELA resources. For instance, Thanksgiving and Our Five Senses by Kidz Count, My Thanksgiving Words — Vocabulary Booklet by Laura Martin, Turkey Time Trace and Write Mats by Teaching Preschoolers and D P Sharpe’s Thanksgiving Cutting Activity Set.
What Thanksgiving would be complete without knowing The Story of Thanksgiving by Cahill’s Creations or make it personal with Mrs Lindsey’s Thanksgiving *FREEBIE*.
Bring a multi—cultural perspective to Thanksgiving with Open Wide the World’s FREEBIE or Happy Teacher Happy Kids Gobble Tov! activity. L’chaim!

Your kiddos will be thankful when you teach math using Nancy Strout’s Thanksgiving Freebie, Games 4 Learning’s Thanksgiving Math Bump Game, Fern Smith’s Classroom Ideas’ Thanksgiving Subtraction Doubles Interactive Notebook Activity, or FirstGradeFunTimes’ How Much is that Turkey in the Window activity.
Puzzles and games are fabulous late fall activities. Try Irene Hines’ Thanksgiving Seasonal Math Puzzles and Jennifer Drake’s Turkey LRC Game.

Feast your eyes on these resources… First go Shopping for Thanksgiving Dinner with Blair Peterson. Next, Schoolhouse Divas help you determine everyone’s Thanksgiving “Favorite Dish”! Or, skip straight to dessert with Teaching Times 2’s Pumpkin Taste Testing Bar Graphing.
The time to write thank you’s is just around the corner. Help students with their grammar by using Second Grade Stories’ Fall Fix–it activity, Brittany Lynch’s Thanksgiving Writing Prompts, Brooke Brown’s Important Things About Thanksgiving writing activity, Debbie Palacios Hayes’ Thanksgiving Writing Templates, and Primary “Teach”spiration’s Writing Papers.
Go on a Fall Nature Walk with Green Grubs Garden Club by Mrs Hug-a-Bug. Write about it using Brenda Tejeda’s Thanksgiving Word Wall Writing Activity, and Bright Concepts 4 Teachers’ Gobbling Up Main Idea and Details. Don’t forget to include some synonyms using Winged One’s Pilgrim Expressions Synonyms. Finally, compare today’s Thanksgiving with Thanksgivings gone by using Erin Morrison’s Then and Now T–Chart Partner Project.

If you’re anything like me, the holidays are a time to overindulge… Dennis McDonald’s Gobbling Up Numbers, Amy’s SMART Designs’ Factor Feast and Mayflower Multiples, and Blair Turner’s Gobbling Up Descriptive Words won’t add any extra calories! Or, be thankful for a combination lesson of Thanksgiving Fun with Fractions and Writing by Literacy Without Worksheets.
