Pumpkins, snowmen and party days
Holidays are a kindergartner's calendar. They help five-year-olds understand that the year has seasons and special days that come back again and again. Along the way, kids count pumpkins, sing holiday songs, trace letters in seasonal words and learn about kindness, giving thanks and caring for the Earth. Back to school, Thanksgiving, winter holidays, Valentine's Day and Earth Day each bring a fresh theme. The click moment is when a child says "Valentine's Day is next, after the snowman month!"
Holiday excitement is a gift. These moves channel it into counting, reading and good habits.
Give each child a pumpkin page and a number. They draw that many spots, stripes or faces on their pumpkins. Counting with a theme feels like art, and you can check one-to-one counting at a glance.
Why it works: the U.S. Department of Education's guide for teaching elementary math recommends moving from hands-on objects to drawings to numbers.

Why it works: words set to a repeating melody are easier to recall than the same words spoken (Wallace, 1994).
