November In Kindergarten: Fall, US Symbols, Election, Veterans Day, World Kindness Day, Thanksgiving11/14/2020 November is jam packed with fun activities to celebrate Fall, our country, and kindness around the world. We do this with a variety of activities, stories and crafts that get students excited to learn. Here some ideas to get you started! FallI love to use this chart at the beginning of the season in September to talk with students about what is to come. We discuss cooler weather and how we will soon need jackets and warmer clothes. We have a designated tree we observe all year together, so we talk about the leaves and how they will soon be changing color and falling down. We talk about the harvesting of crops, highlighting apples and pumpkins. We talk about seeing spiders, and the students are excited to point out webs they find outside. We also discuss holidays that happen in the Fall, including Halloween (ghost symbol) and Thanksgiving (turkey symbol). Defining the difference between months, seasons and holidays begins with this anchor chart. As Fall weather begins to show its true colors, I like to take the first week of November to do a Fall recap,  Love this anchor chart?! It's been digitalized just for you! Grab it here!Our class keeps a close eye on our special “Begindergarten Tree” all year long. It grows right outside of our window and is next to the playground, so it’s the perfect tree to observe together. We’ve watched the tree turn from green to red, and this week something special happened. During our morning meeting observation, we noticed the leaves lightly falling to the ground. It was a beautiful, newly frosted morning. That’s when the morning plans went out the window, quite literally. We popped on our coats and went outside to catch some of those precious leaves. While outside, we noted that the leaves were frozen. They gathered some leaves and brought them back to their desks. They hung up their coats, and boom! The leaves were wet.  After lunch the leaves were crunchy. We read “Leaf Man” together, and the kids made their own leaf creations! Check out their creativity! I love when life delivers lessons in the classroom…science, vocabulary, art!  If you don't have leaves in your area, we've got you covered, craft style, of course!

Kiddos complete these for name practice during literacy centers, and they look adorable hanging in the hallway!  US Symbols Activities for KindergartenSince students are familiar with the flag, we take the time to make connections to more US symbols early in November. We discuss the importance of saying the Pledge of Allegiance and why we honor our Veterans.  Need an anchor chart? |
