Description

November Kindergarten Turkey Worksheets is a no-prep Thanksgiving packet with 56 math and literacy activities written for kindergarten. Every page focuses on one skill and uses picture direction cues, so young learners can understand the task even before they read the instructions on their own.

The literacy side builds phonics, reading and writing with a turkey theme. Children read an "I See November" emergent reader, label a turkey, fill in missing capital and lowercase letters, change first and last sounds to make new words, and read a "Tom the Turkey" passage. Sight word pages cover he, she, have, are, was and said, and Thanksgiving writing prompts come in four differentiated versions.

Math pages reinforce number sense through counting, ten frames, number order to 10, one more and one less, and two more and two less. Children also practice number line and turkey addition and subtraction, skip counting by 2s, time to the hour, counting and paying with pennies, graphing and ordering by size.

Level 1 and Level 2 worksheets let you differentiate the same skill for children who need extra support and those ready for a challenge. A Handprint Turkey craft, a Fly or Swim? picture sort and a directed drawing add hands-on variety.

A 4-week November study plan, teacher notes, a goals page, a Turkey Trot Superstar certificate and full answer keys round out the 69 black and white pages for morning work, centers, small groups, sub plans, homework and homeschool.
