Gratitude Pie

A spinning "pie" chart helps kids pinpoint what they're thankful for. To make, cut out a construction paper circle the same size as the inside of a paper plate. Attach with brass fastener, then remove a "slice" of pie. Write "I'm Thankful for …" along the top and ask them to add responses as they rotate the "slice" around the pie.
