Polar Fun Math and Literacy Centers

It is a total winter wonderland where I live. Today we got about 15 inches of snow. And it's not over yet. Plus it is snowman snow, so you can imagine what my kids are doing with it - everything that can get built out of snow will get built this week, forts, snowmen, snow dogs, you name it. One year, my kids made a snow couch and then they sat on it at recess. It was great!

On the subject of snow, I just finished a Math and Literacy Center Pack on the Poles - North and South, Antarctica and the Arctic, you get the picture. It's got some odd/even sorting, adding, graphing, measuring, reading for information, punctuation practice, ABC order, all that good stuff. You can check it out here


And since I've got 3 days of school left until my break, I will give it to the first 3 people who leave a comment. Hope it's something you can use. 

I have been playing the Santa card hard and heavy in my class for the last week. "Oh, I don't think Santa would like that now would he!?" I say that sooooo much. Tomorrow, Santa is dropping a letter off to my class just to let them know he's checking them twice. I try to make the envelope look all worn, like it really came all the way from the North Pole, drip some water on it, an elf footprint here and there. We'll see how it goes....
