Thanksgiving Homeschooling Freebies by Subject

Sharing is caring!

 

I had such a blast putting together the Halloween Homeschooling Freebies by Subject post for Crystal and Company, that I jumped at the chance to do it again, but this time for Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving should be a MAJOR Holiday for us here in the States, but it gets skipped over pretty quickly in favorite of the bright colors of Christmas. That isn’t fair, is it? Let’s take the next few weeks and teach our kids about the importance of this Holiday!

  2. These are some really awesome resources!
    Thanks so much for sharing. As soon as I get my printer working I’ll be printing them out for my boys.
    Happy Thanksgiving!

  3. Those are great, GREAT resources! Thanks so much for sharing! I am going to take a look at some of them now…

    May I add another resource? VocabularySpellingCity is a free online resource (yes there is a paid membership but you don’t *have* to have that to successfully use the site). We are working with special themed word lists this week. Playing games and even using them in our spelling tests, lol. They have this Thanksgiving list, as well as this Thanksgiving Feast list. You can also do a search for more Thanksgiving (or other holidays!) lists if you’d like. 🙂

    Again, thanks for sharing those resources! Hope you and your family have a great Thanksgiving!

    Katie
