busy hands

Despite the fact that the children are already showing signs of holiday overload, our week in the classroom was fairly productive and definitely fun! :)

this doesn't happen very often
in my classroom!

the red rod maze

numerals and counters
the holiday variation
**This lesson is usually
done on a rug
for obvious reasons!

**I laugh because I posted about
teeny ornaments, but
some of these
are HUGE!

not mine!

  1. I love your weekly photo gallery. Such neat stuff going on in your classroom. I was glad to see the rug work on a table because that happens in my class too! I had a question..........for the popcorn, cranberry garland how did you do the thread/needles? Did you pre-thread a bunch of needles? What kind of needles and what type of thread do you use? I love this idea and am doing it at home this month with the boys, but hadn't thought to put it in the classroom.
    THANKS
