Today for circle time we are going to work on making a Thankful book. I have a couple ideas of how you could go about making this book with children. Staple about 4 sheets of construction paper together cut out to be about 6x6 in size using whatever colors of paper you’d like. With the children, talk about things, people, pets, food etc. that they are thankful for and why they are thankful for them. Next, have the children draw some pictures of some of the things you just discussed being thankful for in their Thankful Book. You could even have some magazines for children to cut out some items they would be thankful for and glue or tape it into their book. Of course you can add more pages to the book if children want to expand on it.

Use my uppercase and lower case N patterns. You can use both if you’d like or choose one to use. Make sure that you talk about the sound that the letter makes while the children are working on their letter N.
Here are a few ideas for the letter N:
1. Have the children come up with some words that start with the letter N and write them down.
2. Gather a bunch of collage items for the children to glue onto their letter N.
3. Color the N brown for a Thanksgiving color.

You can say: "When Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego didn't obey the king's new rule and chose to continue to worship God and not a golden statue, the king threw them into the fiery furnace." You can cut the people out of paper and lay them onto the white piece of construction paper they are going to paint on. There were three men that went into the fire and then when the king looked into the furnace he saw four men. If you would like to include the angel added cut out another person to add to the paper before the children start painting. Put the people on the paper with a little bit of tape so they will stay in place.
You can put out the three colors of orange, red and yellow paint for children to dip their hands into and spread onto their paper over all parts of the people on the paper. If you have a child who does not like to get pain on their hands they can use a paint brush.
