‘T ’ stands for turkey

for H oly Trinity preschoolers

PITTSBURGH — A plump turkey with vividly colored tall feathers dominates one of the pages of a new Thanksgiving book for children authored by Holy Trinity Preschool teacher Debbie Catanzarite. The colorful turkey catches the eye and captures the Imagination. "It's the children’s favorite Illustration in the book," Catanzarite observed, "and it has helped them to readily associate the "T ” sound with the printed letter," she said. Teaching the alphabet Is one of the goals of the preschool program, along with developing motor and socialization skills. Finding creative ways to involve lively three and four-year olds In meaningful group ac­ tivities presents a constant challenge for the preschool teachers. Thanksgiving provides an Ideal opportunity, according to Catan­ zarite. who last year guided her students through a re-enactment of the first Thanksgiving. "Not only did they learn about the meaning of the holiday and its traditions, they also had an opportunity to Interact as ‘pilgrims' and 'Indians.' Most of the students had never heard the words 'pilgrims' and 'Indian' and pronouncing them, along with other Thanksgiving- related words, helped the class recall alphabet letters." she said. "It was an excellent opportunity to expose them to sequencing —- how letters and sounds form words, and words, along with pictures, tell stories. I searched around but I just couldn't find a thanksgiving book that I thought was suitable for m y four-year-olds., so I put one together myself. 'The Thanks in Thanksgiving.' I read to them from the book, we discussed the illustrations, then the children re-enacted the story," said the teacher.
