10 Easy Classroom Christmas Ideas For That Last CRaZy Week Before Break!

Need some classroom Christmas ideas for that 

last crazy week before break? Look no further!
I've got you covered!

Promote classroom kindness with these 2 easy prep ideas!

Use  Secret Santa of Kind Words for classmates, 

secret angels, secret buddies  or reading buddies!

Use I Shine When I'm Kind (with or without the 

student pictures) to shine a light on students' 

acts of kindness.

This super simple parent gift was a big hit with my class! 

I purchased small candles, tissue paper, and Mod Podge

 at Wal-Mart.  Thinned with water Elmer's glue works 

just as well if you don't have Mod Podge.

I know there's a snowman craft in there somewhere 

with that lid as the hat but...maybe next year!

Decorate for Data by making glyphs with real 

gingerbread men cookies (available at Wal-Mart) or

 use paper shapes! Bite and graph then draw,

record, interpret and analyze the data!

Make gingerbread themed pop-up cards

to practice math skills!

Thanks A Million

The possibilities are endless for last minute crafts tied 

to your favorite versions of The Gingerbread Man or

any holiday book! 

I'm so excited to do this with my class this week!  

My kids FU-LIPPED last year over the 

daily little gifts on their desks! Students then use the gift 

each day to complete the matching activity pages. 

I made a chart that I roll down each day to reveal 

the new gift!  But.... if you've got no time for fancy 

simply skip the gift tags and the chart, 

put the daily (easy to find) treats 

in a sandwich bag, and place them with the 

daily activity pages on their desks!

Challenge your students to write a 

one sentence summary of a favorite book!

Find this FREE resource here!

Make these cute as can be gingerbread house folders

for students to organize all of your holiday activities!

 Have a holiday book exchange!  Invite students to 

bring in gently used books to exchange with their classmates.  

I use Scholastic bonus points to purchase extras!

I hope you found something that will save you time 

and help make your week more merry!
