Thanksgiving Food List

What You Need:

• Sheet of paper
• Marker
• Ruler

What You Do:

1. Using the ruler and marker, help your child divide the paper in half lengthwise.
2. Then, still using the marker, on the left side of the paper have your child write out a list of 20 different food items commonly found around the table on Thanksgiving. Some examples could be: turkey, gravy, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie.
3. Once the initial list is complete, help your child slowly sound each word out, placing emphasis on the first letter of each food.
4. Then, have your child use the marker to write the foods in alphabetical order in the right hand column.
5. Encourage them to sound out each word as they figures out its correct placement.
