Book Companion Dollar Deal!

Hey there! It's Gina from Teaching With Heart (formerly Miss Peluso's Kindergarten). Now that it is officially November, I can start thinking about all things TURKEY! There are so many great Thanksgiving and turkey themed books out there, but one of my favorites is A Turkey For Thanksgiving by Eve Bunting.

If you've never read this book, it's about a turkey who is invited to Mr. and Mrs. Moose's house for Thanksgiving dinner. He thinks that they want to eat him as Thanksgiving dinner, not have him over as a guest! It is hilarious and heartwarming all at the same time!

To make this wonderful book work for our shared reading time, I created a book companion to go with it. This book companion focuses on tons of reading skills such as making predictions, making text-to-self connections, identifying story parts, sequencing, retelling, and identifying problem and solution. 

 

There is even an adorable craftivity to help your students think about the message of thankfulness in the book! It's the perfect way to tie in a holiday theme with a writing fundamentals lesson!

This book companion will be on sale for just $1 until Friday! I hope you'll join my class in reading this wonderful book this November!

Weather Craftivity

Hey friends! It's Keri from Enchanted Kinder Garden.

I recently made a little craftivity for my kids to go with our weather unit. I thought this would be the perfect resource to mark down for my teacher deal and dollar steal this month!

Yes, I realize our raindrop is upside down. :-)

 Each little weather person has matching hands and feet to either draw a picture or write describing words to go with it.

The cloud is my favorite! We will make him next week when we cover the types of clouds.

Here's my kids' rain person. They wrote things like rain jackets, rain boots, rainbow (I thought that was a great one. We didn't even talk about after rain it makes rainbows), wet, clear... There are so many ideas that they can come up with.

Grab this Weather People craft for $1 for the next 3 days!

Snowman Riddles Craftivity and Writing Template

Hey guys!  It's Angie from Lucky Little Learners and I'm back with a great $1.00 deal!  I don't know about you but we've got parent teacher conferences just around the corner and when my families come in for their conference, it is important to me that there is something really impressive on our bulletin board outside of our classroom.  Not only do I want it cute but I also want it to showcase their learning and, if possible, make it interactive.  With all of this in mind, I came up with this little craftivity that your students and families are sure to love...SNOWMAN RIDDLES!

 Your students will each create their own snowman with their name on the body.  This product includes a snowman template.  The hat, scarf, face, arms, and buttons are something that your students will get creative with on their own!  These get hung up after day one.  On day two my students get a pre writing planning sheet and write down adjectives that describe each area of their snowman.

By the way, if you are wondering what the "snow" is made of that the snowmen are standing on...mix Elmer's "drippy" glue and shaving cream (equal parts) and then paint it onto the paper.  I added some blue glitter because who doesn't love a little bit of glitter!

Then on day three, my students took their adjectives and put them into complete sentences to create riddles.  These riddles are then hung up underneath the snowmen.  Each snowman is labeled with a number (also included) so that the parents can guess which riddle belongs to which snowman.  The correct answers are written on the inside of each riddle.  I promise that these will be a hit!  Grab this $1.00 deal today as this is only a temporary discount!  

Thanks for reading and stay warm!
