Narrative Writing | How the Turkey Escaped Thanksgiving Dinner

By Nardine Mettry

An engaging prompt that sets the stage for a hilarious Thanksgiving adventure! The star of the show? A turkey determined to escape its fate! Students will use their creativity to craft a narrative about the turkey's daring escape, the chaos it leaves behind, and the potential consequences (or maybe even a happy ending!)

Make it interesting!

  • How did the turkey manage to escape the Thanksgiving dinner table?
  • Describe the turkey's journey after escaping. Did it encounter any obstacles or helpful allies?
  • What happens to the characters back at the Thanksgiving table? Are they surprised, disappointed, or perhaps secretly relieved?
  • Will the turkey reach freedom, or will it be captured (with a twist, perhaps)?

What to do in class?

  1. Set the Scene: Introduce the "The Great Gobbler Getaway" prompt and discuss the elements of a strong narrative, such as plot, characters, setting, and a clear beginning, middle, and end.
  2. Brainstorming Bonanza: Encourage students to brainstorm ideas for their narratives. They can sketch scenes, jot down character details, and plan the escape route for their feathery friend.
  3. Gobble Gobble Write! Students put pen to paper and craft their Thanksgiving escape stories.
  4. Sharing Time! Students can share their hilarious and creative narratives with the class, sparking laughter and imagination.

⭐Math Thanksgiving: Equivalent Fractions Turkey**⭐**

⭐Journey to the center of the Earth narrative/descriptive: Earth Layers**⭐**

⭐Christmas narrative writing: Trapped in a Snow Globe**⭐**

Cinco de mayo Art Projects, Hispanic Art Project, Art Lesson: Cinco de mayo

By Down in the Art Room

This Cinco de Mayo Art Lesson set has 4 projects plus a game so it may be successfully used with all of your elementary students Kindergarten -5th grade. This product contains 4 Cinco de Mayo art projects with project samples and step-by-step instructions with photos plus so much more. These lessons are loosely based on the artwork of Jasper Johns. Also included is information on Cinco de Mayo, Hispanic Heritage Month, and artist Jasper Johns (1 page each).

I love these mixed media projects because any student can be successful - there is no "right way" to complete the mixed media projects. These lessons encourage student creativity, allow students to make choices in their artwork, and include connections to other disciplines (math, social studies, and literacy). A resource page is included with math and literacy connections.

The lesson is in a PDF file. It includes:

  • 4 projects with step-by-step instructions, project samples, and photos
  • Fact sheet for Cinco de Mayo
  • Fact sheet for Hispanic Heritage Month
  • Information about Jasper Johns
  • Cross-curricular and literacy connections
  • Dice game to play to create the project to increase student engagement

With multiple Cinco de Mayo projects, your lesson can easily be differentiated for students. Choose a project for students, let them choose, or let them create their own projects after seeing these examples.

Journée du Chandail Rose Colouring-Pink Shirt Day Activity-FRENCH Resource

By La trousse de Madame

French Pink Shirt Day FREEBIE

This quick and easy resource is for use near the end of the month of February to recognize Pink Shirt Day. The story behind this day is one that has a positive influence on students as they understand that it is not OK to bully EVER.

I hope you are able to use this resource in your class by quickly making copies and allowing students to use their creativity and unique perspectives to colour and decorate how they see fit.

Personally, I made copies onto pink printer paper in poster size 200% to make two big posters with the title 'Jour du chandail rose' and students have placed their Tshirts around the poster. Older students will also make theirs with a writing piece to explain their views on Pink Shirt Day in French.

Merci:

Thank you for visiting my TeachShare store and for downloading this FREEBIE

How to use this resource:

1. Copy a set for students. I like to copy multiple sets (ie. 3 sets of 8 to insure that students sitting with one another do not have the same page next to them. I find this allows for more creative development as they do not copy their neighbour).

2. Let students colour and create and cut the shape of the Tshirt out

3. Display on a bulletin board or on the wall of your school

JE VOUS SOUHAITE UNE BONNE JOURNEE DU CHANDAIL ROSE

Who can use this resource:

Teachers who are looking for French resources who want quick and easy NO PREP materials that their students will love. A fresh new look on a great idea and the best part is you just have to click 'print'.

Students love the clear lettering and can get creative using all the various pink writing materials in the class. I gave my students free reign of anything pink and they came up with their own unique designs.

Students are proud to be a part of a bigger project that they can all display with pride.

What grade level:

I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from K-3 will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.

If you love this resource:

***1. French SOR Sound Cards

***2. French Decodable Reading

***3. Roles et Responsabilites

***4. French Number Line

***5. French Attention Grabbers

***6. French Speaking Passport

***7. French Pyramid Reading

***8. French Alphabet Workbook

***9. French Decodable BUNDLE BEST DEAL

Some of the Benefits of this resource:

  1. Students use hands on materials
  2. Boost confidence in French language acquisition with whole group, small group, independent work, and one-to-one instruction using the same resource
  3. Each alphabet sheet may be used independently or as a cumulative workbook of French activities
  4. Students grow in independence at their own pace
  5. Reinforce decoding and encoding skills
  6. Social wellness and personal autonomy in using French in the classroom
  7. Scaffold and support language acquisition, oral communication, and writing skills
  8. Alphabet set can be used all year long and re-introduced each year going forward

Interesting Classroom Decoration! - 6 Fascinating Rhyming Sotho Words

By Daniel

Perfect fun activity for children to do, and learn about a big World out there, and enjoy themselves!

Students love to learn about other languages. The six Sotho words on this classroom poster

  • are often used by teachers
  • all rhyme with each other
  • are easy to remember
  • are words applicable to everyday life
  • can be used in every classroom
  • are given to you in their original spelling and phonetic spelling.

I am a Sotho speaker and I can promise you, since I put up this poster in my class, students use the words daily, they are interested in this tiny and unknown country, and they feel like linguistic giants (tongue in cheek).

You may also want to put these up in your Class!

In this unit, you (or your sub!) can easily lead an independent, self-guided project for your middle-school students in grades 4 through 8. As with all of my products, you'll never see frilly hard-to-read fonts or babyish images. My products are intended for your students who think they're adults, but aren't quite there! They're loaded with examples and easy-to-understand language.

In this 13-page resource, you'll find the following activities, templates, prompts, examples and tasks that will keep them busy for days!

  • "Une maison hantée thématique" - An activity that will get your students brainstorming a theme for their haunted house and a final reflexive activity on making their choice.

  • "Donnez des frissons!" - An activity intended to have students stick to their "theme" and give details about the different rooms or areas within their haunted house. This activity should bring to life their design and concept.

  • "Le plan d'étage" - A guided example of a building plan including a "légende" with typically used symbols in engineering to construct their one- (or multiple-) storey haunted house on paper.

  • Also included is a large-format example to display for your students who need the extra visual supports.

  • Also included is a blank sheet for students to draw their haunted house's building plan.

  • "Mesures de ma maison hantée" - An activity to push your students' mathematical brains. These activities have step-by-step examples on changing the scale of their "paper" haunted houses to a realistic measurement, as well as calculating the perimeter and area of each of the areas within the house! Formulas are given and explained if you haven't quite got here, yet! This step will include multiplying decimal numbers.

  • "Des paragraphes terrifiants!" - This writing activity will have your students thinking about audience and the purpose of writing. Miniature graphic organizers are provided for your students to create descriptive, persuasive and narrative paragraphs as well as a poster project to "sell" their haunted house!

  • "Boutique Bouh!" - A series of math activities to boost your students' abilities to estimate and add decimal numbers including:

  • Boutique Bouh!'s store prices to be used in 2 other activities:

  • Story problems/written problems.

  • Building a mathematically specific treat bag!

  • "La liste de courses" - An activity that will have your students sticking to a budget when choosing the items they'll need to create the haunted house of their dreams! This activity includes a catalogue of items and prices at a local hardware store, and your students will have to calculate based on quantity, add and multiply decimal numbers, and finalize their total bill which must not surpass 1000$.

  • "Potions des monstres" - An activity on ordering decimal numbers from smallest to greatest.
