It's Almost Thanksgiving Day and the Old Woman Swallowed the Pie! Great Links for Thanksgiving.



The popular book this month must be I Knew an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie by Alison Jackson. It's all over Pinterest and as of today a search revealed 37 related activities at Teachers Pay Teachers. There are four activities that correspond with this book at Boardmakershare.com and I posted a few free found downloads below. 


I Knew an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie   
  • Retell the story and feed the old lady with activity pages from Make Learning Fun
  • At Lil Country Kindergarten, find great story props, a sequencing activity and an emergent reader for I knew an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie
  • Can Do Kinders has another emergent reader, a beginning sound sort, and vocabulary pictures for a simple writing activity.  
  • Using the printables from Can Do Kinders and Lil Country Kindergarten, Deb Renner Smith at Writing Everyday Works, put a week long lesson together for the book on her blog.
