Ideas for your November calendar
November is the month of gratitude. Write one thing you are thankful for in each day’s box, and plan the Thanksgiving week — many schools close Wednesday through Friday.
- Family command center: print one for the fridge and write in practices, birthdays and appointments with a different color for each person.
- Classroom calendar: enlarge it for the board and let the “calendar helper” add the weather each morning. See the classroom calendar headers.
- Habit tracker: kids color a box each day they read, practice an instrument or make their bed.
- Countdown: circle a big day and cross off each day until it arrives.
