Hello Everyone!! I have absolutely loved having this week off. Christmas was a very relaxing and sweet day of celebrating so many things. I feel so blessed! I ended up getting a yucky cold later in the week, so I was forced to stay in and enjoy the snow from my couch. It did give me some time to put together a little unit for later on in the winter, probably the week of Jan 21. I love having time to plan ahead for a change. This little unit includes some winter poetry and interpretation responses, some compound word activities, a word search, some math tub activities, including one with missing addend, a marshmallow snowman craft connection, some quick reader's response to go along with "The Biggest Snowman Ever" By Steven Kroll, a mystery picture math activity with addition and subtraction clues, and a fun science activity. Here are a few pics to help you visualize. Looks good enough to eat!! Unit has a Borax snowflake in a jar experiment. If your fingers aren't too cold, click here for your 45 page wintry unit! Now that I'm feeling a little better, I'm going to venture outside!! Hope your time off is a time of blessings and joy! Joyfully! Nancy
