It's not quite Christmas time, and we're past Thanksgiving. What kind of lessons or activities can I do for the last week in November?

The cold, frosty weather.
Monday: Dressing up for the weather- a good time to learn how to zip up or button your coat and to tie your shoes. What should one wear this time of year?
Tuesday: Talk about the frost that may be on the ground and how you can see steam from your breath. You can draw pictures on the window if it's steamed up, or you can produce your own steam.
Wednesday: Using the 5 senses to experience the change in the environment. See the color changes in the leaves. Hear the leaves rustle when crushing a dead one in your hand. Feel the cold and the wind blowing. Smell the different fragrances that the wind brings. Taste warm cocoa to keep warm.
Thursday: Discuss how creatures prepare for the coming winter and possibly help them out by making a feeder for them.
Friday: A little bit of science. Demonstrate how rubbing your hands together really fast can produce heat by friction. Also how one can share body heat with another by huddling together. Or that hot cocoa can warm you up from the inside. Or how cold affects different things in different ways.

You can talk to them about how the year went by, like what they have done, trips they have gone on over the summer, activities, fun stuff, etc. Or you can talk to them about what they would like to do next year. It doesn't have to be holiday related.

It's a good time to talk about family and sharing. In my class we are talking about shapes all week.
