Thanksgiving, Christmas, and a Sale!!!

After days of photos, we finally got our Christmas card picture down.  The hubby is just a little picky when it comes to the card.  :)  Ready to order them tonight.  

On another note, I've tried to cram as much Thanksgiving I could into the last two days before Thanksgiving.

We made these messy and fun Thanksgiving Trees.  The kiddos traced their hands and wrote something they were thankful for on each.  I painted their arm and hand for the trunk and branches.  I thought they turned out super cute.

Get ready for picture overload!  

I read the Great Turkey Race and we made these.  I love these turkeys from Kindergarten Monkey Business.

I put up my little desk tree Tuesday.  We were listening to my favorite Pandora Christmas station that day, so I got eager!

Here's what I've been working on.  My lovelies need lots of practice on synonyms and antonyms so I made this mega pack to pull from throughout the year.  My goal is to have one or two of these centers going per week.  Check it out {HERE} if you're interested.

I'm also ready to start the fun Christmas stuff.  I have this Grumpy Badger's Christmas English Language Arts unit.  The story was written by Jane Chapman.  It's super cute!  It’s great to use as a review during the Christmas season.  The entire unit is aligned with the Common Core Standards.  I have included each standard for each activity to make it easier for you when making lesson plans.  I have also outlined what activities to do each day.   The unit includes a literature, phonics, literacy centers, and writing component.   I can't wait to read it to my littles!

TPT's Cyber Sale starts tomorrow and runs through Tuesday!  My store is 20% off, plus use TPT's code CMT12 to receive an addition 10% off.  That's a total savings of 28%!  I know my wish list is way too full!  Happy shopping, friends!
