9:50 Literacy Activity Seel – A ride on the “T” train. Have kids make their own tickets for the train by writing the letter “T” all over the tickets. Have kids get on the train with their tickets. (use laundry baskets or blankets for the train.) Ask them to name things they see around the room while on the train that start with the letter T. Ask them to name animals that start with T and pretend they are that animal: tiger, turtle, toucan, tarantula, turkey.
10:05 Math – Turkey Math. Add feathers in your turkey math book until the turkey has the same number of feathers as the number on the turkey. Use fingers to show how five and five make ten. Teach the kids the “turkey tens” song. See who can count by tens.
