Let’s make an addition craft with gingerbread cookies!

Wrap a piece of tin foil around a piece of paper and turn the paper into a baking sheet.

Then, add some gingerbread men and gingerbread girls.

Count how many you have of each, fill in the blanks, and write an addition equations that goes along with the gingerbread cookies.

An easy, fun, and hands-on way to practice addition! These look adorable displayed on a bulletin or hallway wall.

Let's make a holiday craft that you can give as a gift or to use as decoration!

This reindeer craft is so much fun to make because it is not only adorable, but it's a 3D reindeer that can sit just about anywhere!

Students get to choose from 4 different options for their reindeer craft. Choose from writing their family names, their name, their holiday wishlist, or keep it blank.

Have the reindeer sit at your table, the mantle, in a chair, or wherever you choose.

This reindeer craft will bring lots of smiles to students and families faces. A great holiday keepsake!

Let the holiday books begin!! Have you read the adorable story, 'Santa's Stuck'?

This is a great follow-up activity after reading the story and will get students practicing different story elements.

You may have noticed that this activity has a little twist! The story elements are in a flip book!

Students also get to add a fun craft that goes along with the story to the top of their flip books.

This Santa's Stuck activity can be found in my Christmas Unit that includes TONS of different math and literacy activities. You can get a closer look at my link in bio⬆️

Let's put a little twist on some winter activities!

These editable mystery pictures will add lots of excitement, suspense, and fun to your winter activities.

There are 3 different mystery pictures that you can add sight words, spelling words, letters, numbers, and more!

The suspense of what the picture will turn out to be makes this winter activity so engaging.

Students do not even realize they are learning, practicing, and mastering different skills!

Let’s practice reading and sight words! One way

Let’s practice reading and sight words!

One way that I love to provide students with fluency practice and extra sight word practice is with sight word sentence scrambles!

There are 2 different size book options to choose from that focus on a specific sight word.

Each book has 5 sentences that students get to practice reading each sentence, writing each sentence, and uncramble words to make each sentence complete.

Also included is a page that you can use as an assessment or that you can have students take home for extra practice.

There are 50 different sight word books included!

Let's practice sequencing with the stories, 'The Gingerbread Man' and 'The Gingerbread Girl'.

These classic stories are so much fun to read this time of year and there are endless amount of activities that can go with these two stories.

I like to read the story and complete a class anchor chart to practice sequencing the story together. Then, it is time for students to go work independently, in a small group, or whole group to complete the sequencing page.

This sequencing activity will have students put the people and animals that the Gingerbread Man and the Gingerbread Girl ran away from in the correct order.

There are 3 different versions of The Gingerbread Man story that I have included so that you can have the activity with a version that you most likely already own!

You can find this sequencing activity and so many more activities that go along with these stories in my Gingerbread Unit at my link in bio⬆️

Seeing these December centers gets me even more excited for all of the holiday fun going on this month!

These December literacy centers will definitely bring some holiday cheer to your teaching and student learning.

Each center activity is hands-on, interactive, and you will most likely hear your students be upset when they have to transition out of centers time. They will be having so much fun!

A recording sheet and kid-friendly 'I Can' poster is included to help with accountability and to promote independence!

There are 28 December math and literacy centers included! You can get a closer look at everything included at my link in bio⬆️

I also have these December centers available for first grade!
