Pictures for our Elf Applications!

 

 

Techy Santa by Reagan Tunstall

 



Our elf, Rex, has left each of us a candy cane!

Check out my TPT store for the Elf on the Shelf Candy Cane Gift Tag!

 

I switched them out with green candy canes and a tag from the Grinch, which I can not sell or even give away since it says the Grinch and has his picture. :(

The Grinch is in the tree now! Can't wait until tomorrow when the students see them!!

 

 

 

Pictures for an ornament!

 

 

 

Wellllllll......I didn't get 12 pictures taken yesterday!  I tried!

 



Ready, Set, ACTION! Verbs that is!

Here's just a few of the verb activities

we have been doing! 

Keep reading for a FUN activity one of my cuties

invented the other day!

Brainstorming Verbs

Sure wish I could make my charts adorable like the ones

all over the teacher blog world and pinterest!

We did our Gingerbread Unit and this product

was PERFECT!

On the last day of our Gingerbread Man unit,

guess who we finally found?!?!

There he was sitting in our hallway! 

He even left Gingerbread Men for us to eat as our

first batch of Little Debbie Gingerbread Men were sadly

destroyed earlier in the week in a science experiment,

"What happens when the Gingerbread Man gets wet?"

*Note the Missing posters in the background!

These posters were hung all over our elementary.

Check out the  missing poster and a

 couple of other freebies in my tpt store! 

 Check them out

here , here, and here!

 

Maybe I should have put them all into one product, huh?!?!

Anyway, one last plug for the

Gingerbread Man and my products!

NOW to the fun activity my student created!

We watched this youtube video on verbs.

(Sounds like Dr. Jean??)

My student then says, "Hey!  I have a game for us! 

We can get with a partner and take turns

clapping and saying:

Student 1

How about you?

What can you do?

Student 2

I can (insert verb)

It was a BLAST!  

They do the clapping and actions , just like in the video! 

They loved it and my student was so proud he invented it!

Fairy Tale Spin-Offs

Have you seen these books???

I was so excited about them,

I created (and continue to create!)

a whole bunch of common core ELA activities to go with them!

You can check them out by clicking here and here!

One product includes point of view, comparing and contrasting,

graphing and opinion writing.

The other product includes a newpaper template for

characters, setting and major events.



I also made a fairy tale inference investigation!

Click here for that!

Elf on the Shelf vs The Grinch!

 

I could never decide what to do with the red strawberry candy canes from the Starburst package after using the green candy canes for the Grinch poem I found somewhere!  Enter the Elf on the Shelf!  Click the link above to check it out!

 

I will post pictures as soon as our elf arrives and the trouble begins!

I am so new to this blogging bit and linking!  I don't really know what I am doing!  It is just trial and error!  My link for the linky party ended up being the Flat Gingy Project!
