Planning for All Things Fall: Part 3 – November
Cozy November is here! In my opinion, November is tough because there are days off of school left and right. We all love a day off, but it does make it hard to get things done! Veterans Day, Kindness Day, and Thanksgiving, phew! In this post, I’ll show you how I continue my routines while welcoming in themed activities, fun, and some freebies! Welcome to Part 3 of our 3 part series for Fall.
If you missed it, check out part 1 and 2 below.
NovemBER:
Gobble, gobble, gobble! In November, I love to teach about traditions, family, and kindness. If you’re interested in keeping up with the daily routines that I outlined in my previous two posts about fall planning, I’ll outline my daily activities below. Feel free to switch it up or use these products as early finishers, Fun Friday activities, or even for indoor recess as it gets chilly where you live.
Monday: Math Monday (graphing)
Tuesday: Trace It Tuesday (symmetry)
Wednesday: Write About It Wednesday (directed draw)
Thursday: Think Hard Thursday (color the code)
Friday: Fun Friday (solve by code spelling)

Veterans Day:
Private Penny is perfect for Memorial Day, Veterans Day, Flag Day, and learning or reviewing United States symbols. Use the Private Penny Puppet to help tell the cute story about Private Penny visiting symbols of the U.S. around the country! Students can the puppet in the paper pocket that is glued to the back of the book cover (paper pocket template included or use a library book pocket). Watch your students read it over and over again!
World Kindness Day:
Celebrated on November 13th every year, World Kindness Day is one of my favorite days of the year!
Thanksgiving:
If I’m being honest, Thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday. In the classroom, I love to highlight family, traditions, and being thankful for what is around us. Whether you are out of school all week, have school Monday and Tuesday, or go all the way through Wednesday, I have some ideas to keep your students engaged, learning, and of course, on theme. 🙂 Click on the images for links to the products.
My students LOVE to play Bingo and connect the images with the verbal clues I give them. We play regular, corners, and then blackout! It’s so fun.
The Big Pack is a combination of so many literacy, math, and writing activities. Plus some freebies!
