Reindeer - A Nonfiction Book Extension

Our favorite winter animal is very interesting. This nonfiction book teaches you many facts about reindeer. Kids are fascinated with this wonderful creature and with good reason. Without these guys, how would we EVER get our toys on Christmas morning?????? HA!
So grab this book (or any factual book about reindeer) and start locating those cool videos of these animals in action. Then, use what you learned to make our cute little Reindeer Facts booklet with cute little hands for antlers. 

You can get our Book Extension here.

Moostletoe - Book Extension

This funny Christmas story is about a very busy moose. He has many things to do to get ready for Christmas. This book is PERFECT for teaching verbs with all the action going on during the rush to get everything ready for Christmas Day. Our kiddos love this story, and all of the other versions as well. We think yours will too. It's a great way to sneak in those skills your students think are just fun and games.

Must Be Santa - Book Extension

This song brings out the performer in us all, doesn't it??? Admit it! Teachers LOVE this song. It's a favorite song for kids too, and is also a book by Tim Moore, available on Amazon. It will have your kids singing with excitement about our favorite storybook character at this time of year. We made a colorful booklet, and a black and white one as well, for coloring and taking home. The Spin and Color, Spin and Build, and coloring contest are great for Christmas party day and the song is perfect for singing to parents on party day ( and everyday) as well. We need all the engagement possible on this exciting time of year.
