Hi All,
      We've been having a great time this week.  One of my favorite lessons is Cookies for Santa.  My students respond so well to it that we pretty much use it every day!  Here are photos:
You can set yours up however you want.  I chose to attach the big mouth Santa (included in the download) to a plastic container and a little strip of magnetic tape on the back of each cookie so they stay in place when I hold up the cookie sheet.

In a small group I have the students take turns putting the cookies in Santa's mouth as we read the story.  We all love it.  We're building our stamina to sit and listen to a story, we're practicing our colors/color words, and we're taking turns!  There's more in this download.  Click the cover below to view this item in my TpT store to see what all you get:

Hi All,
      I just wanted to share photos from my Christmas Song Book.  We've been having a good time with this.
      We've been using our song book after recess.  So far we're singing Jingle Bells.  I put the Jingle Bell page is on my easel as a visual aid and I pass out jingle bells for my students to use when we sing.  They have fun jingling the bells.  I sent the student copy of the Jingle Bells page from the song book home in the homework packet for students to practice daily with their parents.  Here are photos:
Here's the link to my Christmas Song book if you're interested:

She used colorful file folders and Velcro to make file folder games.

Thanks again Tina!  I love it!
