Being Thankful

This lesson plan can be used the week of Thanksgiving.

Students will draw a large circle and then smaller circles and lines pointing to the large circle. Inside the large circle, they will write the word Thankful. Inside the smaller circles, they will write different things they are thankful for.

Paper

Pencils or crayons

First, you will pass out one sheet of paper to each student. Then, you will draw an example on the board like they are to draw on their sheets. After that, they need to write down the things they are thankful for such as parents, brothers, sisters, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers, homes, food, clothes, toys, and other items.

You can grade the students on how well they drew their circles and lines and how they followed directions.
