Thanksgiving Book

Today we went to Barnes and Noble to find a really good Thanksgiving Book. I have a few books from my teaching days but I wanted a really simplistic "I am thankful for" book. I need a book like this to better explain next week's activity. I found a book called "Thanks for Thanksgiving" and I love it. It simply states things kids are thankful for. I will read this book to her at least once a day between now and Thursday. On Monday I plan on starting our own Thankful Book. I will read the book and then help guide her to what she is thankful for each day until Thanksgiving. She will draw the picture and then I will record what she is thankful for under her picture. Because we are doing the same activity each day next week, I won't post everyday. I will just post our finished product at the end of the week.

The Big Book of Exclamation

Today we didn't have an activity. We read books and played without any structured activity time. And that was fun. However, I did want to mention this book that a speech therapist showed me. It is called The Big Book of Exclamation and it is a tool used to develop language. The pictures are awesome and it will be one of Claire's Christmas presents. Here is the website where you can purchase the book:
