Talking Turkey - Story Structure


This week we started talking about all things Thanksgiving!!  Pilgrims, Native Americans, and of course TURKEYS!!  My students love read alouds.  I start my Daily 5 time with a read aloud each day.  Today we read The Perfect Thanksgiving by Eileen Spinelli. 
Picture from Amazon.com
 In this book the Abigail Archer has a PERFECT family.  And of course the other little girls’ family IS NOT PERFECT.  At first she is sad because her family isn’t perfect but by the end she realized Thanksgiving is about having a loving family not what you eat or wear.

After we read the book the students completed this graphic organizer to practice recalling the Characters, Setting, Problem, and Solution from the text.  They did such a good job.
 



If you are interested I have this graphic organizer and more like it for sale HERE!!


This week also using TONS of ideas from CaraCarroll’s thanksgiving pack: Let’s Give Thanks!! We are using these centers during literacy and math.  You can check it out HERE!!

    It's simply surprisingly open-handed of you to supply without
    restraint exactly what a number of us would have marketed as an electronic book to get some bucks for their own end, primarily now
    that you might have tried it if you ever decided.
    Those tactics also acted to be a good way to be aware that some people have similar desire just like my own to realize a great deal more when it comes to this problem. 오피사이트

    So far only a less number of Internet casinos
    could be trusted for investing money, however their numbers are progressively growing.
    There is something enthralling and captivating in playing online flash games, especially gauzing from the different arrangement of cards and figuring the very
    best that matters. Check out the bingo reviews to obtain more specifics of
    particular online bingo site and you'll earn extensive money.

    As I am looking at your writing, 온카지노 I regret being unable to do outdoor activities due to Corona 19, and I miss my old daily life. If you also miss the daily life of those days, would you please visit my site once? My site is a site where I post about photos and daily life when I was free.
