Thanksgiving Fun!

So I just knew this was going to be a bad sleeping night.  One problem was my kids are coming to school at 8am and our Thanksgiving Feast doesn't start until 11:30.  I picked up this adorable Thanksgiving clap the syllables from the Mofatt girls (love her blog).  You can grab it HERE!   So to add to my new found goody and to keep my precious ones busy I created some quick fun Thanksgiving Activities.  I will be sure to take pictures tomorrow and let you know how it goes!  I have these cute fall beads to use as markers for my bingo cards!

Candy Corn Bingo!

Each week I like to reinforce skills on Fridays in a game form.  The last week of October we played Candy Corn Bingo.  We used candy corn as markers.  We had to begin by eating one candy of course, it is way too hard to wait!  We play in small groups of 6.  I always call the letter and then ask what sound that letter makes and for my emergent readers, I ask for a word that begins with that letter.  For some that still need help with recognition, I show the card and have them find it.  It is important that they repeat the name for me.  It is a great game for different levels of learners.  We play until everyone wins.  The student has to call "Candy Corn Bingo".  We also praise the winners.  I let each of them eat a few and put the rest in a baggie for home.
