\ud83c\udf41 Gratitude Activities for Thanksgiving…or ANYTIME! <\/strong><\/p>\n

I was once told by a loved and valued veteran teacher to use literacy as your springboard<\/em>, especially in early elementary. Books have always been an integral part of my classroom and are often the springboard for learning across all subjects ever since. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This set is built around just that; Each resource begins with a carefully chosen story that captures the spirit of gratitude and togetherness, followed by hands-on, standards-aligned activities that reinforce literacy, SEL, and creative thinking skills. Although created with Thanksgiving in mind, most activities can be used any time of the year <\/strong>and are designed to keep students learning, loving, and feeling a whole lot of gratitude for all of our blessings!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
