Welcome to my Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving lesson plans page. Here you will find a set of writing resources to use for Dav Pilkey's Thanksgiving picture book.
During the month of November, I read Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving by Dav Pilkey to my students. Most students are familiar with the classic children's Christmas story, Twas the Night Before Christmas. Dav Pilkey uses this same concept that children are familiar with, but instead he has a Thanksgiving and turkey theme in his picture book.
This teaching resource set includes the following:
directions
first draft bus worksheet #1
first draft barn worksheet #2
final draft black and white turkey writing templates
final draft color turkey writing templates
grading rubric
matching 5 page bulletin board display banner
Below are the teacher directions and grading rubric that are included in this set.
For this assignment, student listen to the teacher read the Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving aloud to the class. As they listen, they should write down the interesting rhyming pairs that they hear, colorful adjectives, and vivid verbs.
There are two first draft worksheets for students to begin their writing on, a bus and a barn worksheet. Students should proofread and edit their first drafts before they begin their final drafts.
On the first draft bus worksheet, students write down the rhyming words, adjectives, and verbs that they hear in the story. I chose a bus shape for this worksheet because the students ride on a bus to and from the farm.
On the first draft barn worksheet, students write a character description for Farmer Mack Nuggett, and the problem and solution. I chose a barn shape for this worksheet because the students visit a farm on their field trip.
There are black and white and color turkey shaped final draft writing worksheets to choose from in this Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving lesson plans.
Students use the information that they have written on their first draft bus and barn worksheets to complete the writing sections in their final draft turkey templates.
