Father's Day - If You Give a Dad a Marshmallow

In honor of Father's Day, today I'm sharing the activity I did this week with my kindergarten classes.


Following the model of the book "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie", this Father's Day activity involves students making their own books titled, "If You Give a Dad a Cookie".  The template can be found on TpT and has 2 versions, one which has the word 'dad' filled in on each page, and one that allows students to fill it in.  We wrote out the word 'dad' in our books so that students without a dad could write their book to another family member or friend.

The story goes if you give a dad a cookie he'll need a campfire, a stick, graham crackers, and chocolate to make s'mores.  So we also made bags with all the ingredients for students to make a s'more at home with their dads.  My EA even found this tag that she was able to customize for dads, grandpas, and uncles that tied everything together.

Here's a link to the TpT template: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Fathers-Day-If-you-give-a-Dad-a-marshmallow-714213
