Elf is Busy

Pin It We read the Nutcracker and look where our elf (Charlie) ended up?

I have a student with nut allergies, so Charlie put a grape in the nutcracker's mouth. He is holding a small cone cup that resembles the cups we have at the drinking fountain. They all decided he must be making grape juice. The day after, they asked if he had left some juice on the shelf. 

Revisiting Elf on The Shelf

Pin It A look back at our classroom elf on the shelf and all the fun he had!

He found a boat that the students built in our lego bin and had some fun!

He thought that Mocha's dog treats were cookies!

We made snowflakes for Polar Express Day and he caught a tiny one on his tongue!

He was getting "fit" after the cookies with marshmallow bar bells!

He played dreidel!

He fished with a little pole made from a paper clip.

At our school the children practice Yoga poses, so Jimmy, our elf, decided to try it too!

I taught the hula at the conclusion of the Music unit! Fortunately, the day was beautiful- just like the children. I love my job:)

Kindness is Cooler!

Pin It We read the book, Kindness is Cooler Mrs. Ruler by Margary Cuyer. I sent hearts home for the children to write the good deeds that they performed at home, I wrote the good deeds they did in school on hearts, and now we are working on doing good deeds in our community!  Mrs. Ruler came by to reward them with a sweet treat for all their hard work!
