Hi All! I hope you are ready to see the “Holiday” centers we completed just before break.
I planned a full week of centers NOT thinking about our party, Polar Express Day, and day off. My poor little guys had to work hard. I decided to NOT do work centers for the two days in January we have in the week as a reward.
Here is what we did to learn about the letter Uu, the -ot family, and Holidays Around the World.
Yellow- Math- We arranged our umbrella numbers in order.
Orange- Writing- We did our Santa Write Me Three activity- you can grab it {here} for free.
Red- Reading- We sorting letters, words, and numbers using ornaments on the tree. I used different color ornaments for the different students so I could use this as an assessment.
Purple- Phonics- We sorted -ot words and -op words using this worksheet from The Mailbox. I chose purple paper to glue it on since it was at the purple table.
Blue- Unit- This was a game I made called Deliver the Gifts from my Polar Express Plus Unit.
Green- Unit- We made these cute and fun Christmas cards for our parents. I *think* we got the idea (many years ago) from Family Fun magazine.
I hope you guys has so much fun before the break like we did.
What do you teach the month of January?
We do Landforms, Snowmen, Polar Animals, and such.
Thank you so much for sharing these! I get so many ideas from you. I love the pictures and words that you matched from a Mailbox worksheet. Can you give me more information about what it came from? Was it a book or a monthly magazine? I would like to find more activities like this one to use. Thanks!
