 Re: Autumn / fall
Thanksgiving is a big holiday in Canada, oct 9th this year, and also in the US. It is in November there.
Giving thanks for all our blessings is the idea, it ties in with the harvest. When I taught in England we always had a harvest festival at school.
So cornucopias with fruits and vegetables spilling out are an art project often done with young children. Also turkeys are popular as Thanksgiving Dinner usually features a turkey.
YOu can make cute turkeys with the kids by drawing around a foot to make the body and then drawing aroung the hands to stick behind the body as the tail feathers. THen just cut out bits of paper to make the eyes and beak as well as legs.
Writing projects can have pattern sentences such as
I am thankful for ____________
I am thankful for ____________ because ___________.etc
