This Creative Writing and Vocabulary product is a fun, (somewhat silly) creative writing project for your students to use during this Thanksgiving holiday season.

Following the steps allows teachers to help their students increase their vocabulary usage in their writing.
Creative Writing and Vocabulary steps focus on front-loading vocabulary so reluctant writers have a solid bank of words and phrases, even story starters, to help keep them engaged and supported throughout the writing process. Using both audio and visual stimuli helps hook the writer from the beginning. The word bank gives additional support.

Students love nature journaling.
Thanksgiving Team writing helps fill in gaps of time that happen frequently around the holiday season.
Or even use the holiday vocabulary to write fall poetry.
