This blog is for me and my friends to share our original curriculum ideas meant for the Montessori classroom. We've gotten so many ideas from others we wanted to give back to that huge community out there!
This is sung to Frere Jacques
'Turkey feathers, turkey feathers
Brightly colored brightly colored
Who has a red one, who has a red one?
Add it now.
When each child's color is called, they bring it up and put it on the turkey.
I then put a smaller version of this on the shelf for two children to do this at a time during the work period.
In the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving, we discuss what we're thankful for and this is many things! After the first few discussions, I ask them each individually what they are most thankful for and we write it on our Thankful Turkey to display in the classroom.
