Teacher Resources For Your Week

Teaching Tip: Lesson Plan Ideas For Thanksgiving
By: Teachnology Staff

We pooled our brain-power to design an interdisciplinary Thanksgiving feast. Here is how we would do it:
1. Make thankful placemats.
2. Graph your favorite Thanksgiving foods.
3. Do a nutritional breakdown of the foods.
4. Nominate and vote for 5-7 items to have at your feast.
5. Use the scientific method to create an experiment to determine how fast turkeys can run.
6. See if you can forecast the weather for Thanksgiving Day.
7. Send invitations.
8. Teach students how to set a table.
9. Let students learn to cook.
10. Learn to say "Thank you!" in 10 languages.
