Last Day before Winter Break!!! So totally excited to have 2 weeks to totally kick back. Even though I'm sure I'll be spending some time working on ELA stuff for next year. Much more fun to do that in pajamas with no make-up on!
Today we had an Ugly Sweater Day for the teachers. I know, that seems redundant :) But I figured out why teachers wear ugly seasonal sweaters....little kids LOVE them!! I got more compliments on my Christmas bulb blinking earrings than on anything I've worn all year. And one of them was broken! It was a fun day. I love occasions like that, that bring the whole staff together for a laugh.
I'm attaching photos of a bulletin board I did for December. I got the idea from this gingerbread house activity I purchased from Primary World on TPT. My kiddos loved it and I thought it turned out really cute. For the gingerbread house in the center, I just traced one projected onto butcher paper. The only bummer is that it was too big for the laminator, I don't think it will survive the take-down :(
Just a little tip on buying student gifts. I finally wised up and bought them in August when school supplies are dirt cheap. I gave them crayons, glue, and a glue stick. All-in-all less than $1.00 each when bought in August. Stores should totally do back-to-school pricing again in Dec. or Jan. They would clean up. All that stuff needs to be replenished at some point during the year. Plus, my kiddos were totes grateful :) Such sweeties!
That is all for now! Have a great Christmas!
