Thanksgiving - Life Skills - Cooking - Special Education - GOOGLE

Thanksgiving is right around the corner and your kids are probably already counting down the days for all the yummy meals that will be served. Capture their excitement this year by working on important skills that they will use during this fun holiday! This activity helps students get familiar with a variety of Thanksgiving day activities. Three different activities are included with your purchase. The first activity has students correctly identify the right Thanksgiving dish from a visual list of meals. The second activity has students practice setting the table for Thanksgiving dinner. Finally, the third activity has students practice making their plate by choosing what Thanksgiving foods they would like to eat.

This activity is specifically formatted to be used with Google Drive and is compatible with Google Classroom. Google Drive is an amazing resource that many educators are now using as an interface to support 1:1 digital instruction in the classroom. I pair it up with Google Classroom (a free website) that allows me to digitally send each student in my class a copy of the worksheets that they later submit to me for grading. With this lesson, students are able to drag and drop items. It is an amazing paper-free process and the kids LOVE working on these worksheets on the computer.

This is a great activity to get students engaged in a meaningful manner right before the fun of holiday break! Make sure to watch the video preview to see a sample from my actual product!
