Do you do a Christmas break countdown in your classroom? Here’s what happened in mine the last 5 days before Christmas break…
T’was the 5 days before break and all through the school,
My sugar plums were dancing and testing the rules!
But my assessments weren’t done, and I thought with a grin,
I’ll surprise them with gifts each day of the week,
I’ll keep it a secret and won’t let them peek!
But not just a gift, I thought with a wink,
I’ll make tasks to go with them so they’ll have to think!
They’ll be reading and writing and having such fun,
That I surely will get my assessments all done!
with report cards and grading, so many late nights!
But during this week as I get it all done,
I know that my students are sure to have fun!
Keep your students engaged, still learning, and having FUN while you get your assessments, report cards, and duties all done! Count down the last 5 days until break with these delightful, best-selling 5 Days Before Break Activities.
