November is here! Along with turkey, pumpkin pie, and spiced lattes, it’s also a great time for family, friends and giving thanks. Scroll down to check out our list of November themes, activities, and how you can use The Character Tree to celebrate those themes with your students.
November is about showing gratitude all month long! Help your students learn how to cultivate an attitude of gratitude in our Gratitude and Oprah Winfrey 1st/2nd-grade video episode!
You do not have to be famous to be an amazing role model! Here at The Character Tree, some of our favorite episodes are about the many children helping to make a difference. Watch one of our free samples, Kindness & Jahkil Jackson and see how you are never too young to show great character!
A month to learn, observe, reflect, create, and connect! The history of Indigenous People in the U.S. is vast. For young learners, we recommend celebrating and learning about indigenous historical figures, like Jim Thorpe. Be sure to check out our Perseverance & Jim Thorpe 1st/2nd-grade video episode & supplemental resource. Looking for more activities? Try https://nativeamericanheritagemonth.gov/for-teachers/
There is a lot to be stressed about, especially around the holidays. In our free sample kindergarten episode, Calm Down Strategies, Miss Sara helps students when they are too anxious, angry, or worried.
November 8th is National Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) Day. This is an excellent opportunity to watch our kindergarten episode Perseverance & Scientists or to learn about the first Black women to travel into space in Mae Jemison & Curiosity.
We know how important it is to show gratitude for Veterans! That’s why we created the 1st/2nd grade episode, Gratitude and Veterans! It helps children learn about Veterans and why we celebrate them!
A day to embrace being kind. Watch any of our kindergarten or 1st/2nd-grade episodes that focus on kindness!
Any of your student’s interested in Princesses? Learn about a real-life princess in our Kindness & Kate Middleton 1st/2nd grade episode!
