It’s officially December and I am officially in the Christmas mindset.
Christmas candles are lit, Christmas lights are up, and our tree is completely ornamented.
{{Ornamented might be a made up word}}
I’m also in a pretty darn good mood because the TpT Cyber Monday (and Tuesday) SALE starts tomorrow!!!!
My cart is stocked.
See, I like to shop on Monday, earn credits, then go back for more on Tuesday.
It’s my version of “extreme couponing”.
My lil’ store is so stockpiled with Christmas goodies you might think I don’t sell anything else.
But I do!
It’s just, I love Christmas so…
Here are my NEWEST Christmas items. Hot off the presses and posted today! Today, you guys!!!
My Winter-Holidays Comprehension sheets are up. They’ve also been added to the BUNDLED version, so if you own that, make sure you redownload before the holidays!
There are 8 passages, and they cover such topics as…
*German Christmas Markets
*Santa’s Many Names
*Traditions
*Christmas in Australia
*Hanukkah
*Santa Claus
and, of course,
*Christmas!
I can’t wait to use them with my kiddos starting this week. We have just really been getting into going back into the text to support our answers. These passages are beyond perfect for enforcing such an important skill.
I’m a million kids of excited about my newest Christmas addition…”Santa’s Little Helpers”
It’s an “Elf-Themed” Hallway Hunt/Read the Room Activity with 3 R/LA and 3 Math activities. Common Core Aligned and Perfect for 1st and 2nd Grade!
To get your kiddos excited about the Hallway Hunt, I’ve provided some fun printables that they’ll need before they board Santa’s sleigh…
An “Official Letter”…
Boarding Passes…
ID Badges…
PS: They're not really gray. I don't know why Blogger is doing that.
and then, of course, there are the “missions”
Not all “missions” are shown. There are 6 in all, plus recording sheets to keep your students accountable!
Those are the new items, but my hands-down favorite item in my store is my “Christmas Around the World” unit.
I created it because I wanted my students to have resources to read about each country’s celebrations. I didn’t want to have to buy a bunch of books from Amazon, or rent them from the library, and I wanted my students to do the reading…
All mini-books are interactive, which means students read about different customs and traditions for each country and then complete an activity on each page…
It’s a HUGE hit and the best part is that my kiddos RETAIN what they’ve learned because they’ve done the reading themselves and interacted with the pages.
Read more about Christmas Around the World in my classroom here.
