Kick-off Thanksgiving Celebrations with a Thankful Book

There’s nothing better than a good book to bring Thanksgiving activities into the classroom.

This Thanksgiving Mini Book is best used during November as a guided reading or writing center activity. It is also an excellent task for fast finishers!

Students will read the decodable text and write to complete a series of statements describing things they are thankful for. The book is packed with fun illustrations for students to chat about and color when they have completed the activity.

Let’s talk turkey with more Thanksgiving crafts and printables!
