Thanksgiving offers educators a unique opportunity to incorporate holiday-themed activities that foster student engagement and enhance learning. The right tools can help teachers unlock creativity and boost learning outcomes through collaborative projects, seasonal decorations, or engaging printables.
At SumnerOne, we understand the importance of providing schools with the best printing, content management, and IT solutions to make these ideas a reality. This Thanksgiving, let’s explore how our products and services can empower schools to enhance education and creativity—while celebrating gratitude in the classroom.
Using holiday themes in lessons can make learning more interactive and fun. Studies show seasonal activities improve student engagement and memory retention by creating real-world connections. Thanksgiving-themed materials offer educators the chance to:
Explore lessons that highlight diverse narratives, including indigenous and colonial experiences, while fostering respectful conversations surrounding the holiday.
Encourage students to express thankfulness through creative writing projects.
Use art supplies and printed materials for bulletin boards, decorations, and projects.
Creating beautiful, educational Thanksgiving materials becomes much easier when teachers have access to high-quality printing tools. Here are some creative project ideas for schools:
Create vibrant bulletin boards that display student projects. SumnerOne’s multifunction printers (MFPs) can print large, colorful templates to make these boards eye-catching and interactive.
Pro Tip: Use our wide-format printers to generate posters or banners that decorate hallways and classrooms with fall colors.
Teachers can encourage students to print and personalize Thanksgiving cards to send home, helping them practice letter writing while building connections with family. Schools can rely on SumnerOne’s MFPs and copiers to produce these cards quickly and affordably.
Bonus Idea: Add a collaborative element by creating cards for local charities or nursing homes, spreading kindness and community spirit.
Thanksgiving-themed worksheets and activity pages reinforce math, vocabulary, and history lessons. With cloud-based document management solutions, SumnerOne can ensure that educators always have quick access to these materials from any device
