Fall is in full swing around here. The leaves are changing colors and painting beautiful pictures each day.
November is that lucky month before December and all of its holidays. We "fall back" at the beginning of the month and enjoy the extra hour of sleep. Veterans Day occurs in November, and reminds us of the many things we should be thankful for during this season.
November is also the month when we think about family and close friends as we gather for Thanksgiving towards the end of the month. Today I'm sharing a song about November.
As I've shared before, I use boardmaker pictures to represent each holiday, season, or special day mentioned in each song of the month. I like to display the pictures in the order they occur in the song (and during the month). I've found this to be a great way to display the pictures when I want to assess what pictures the students recognize also. I can hold out the card for November and ask, "Where is Election Day?" or "Show me Thanksgiving". Many students can successfully the pictures as well!
As the picture shows below, for the November song I use a picture for the time change, Election Day, Veterans Day, and Thanksgiving.
What are your favorite songs for the fall?
As always, thanks for stopping by!
Stay tuned for a catchy tune about apples tomorrow!
