I
can’t believe it is already December! I am linking up with Farley's Currently.
I thoroughly enjoyed my week off for
Thanksgiving break, but it is back to the grind today. To make my morning better, I am listening to a
little Christmas music before I leave for school. I am in love with the Pentatonix’s Christmas album. I am always amazed by acapella groups. I
am loving that my husband and I put up our tree
yesterday. I love coming down the stairs
to the twinkling lights. It’s our first Christmas together as husband and wife,
so it’s a little more special than usual.
I
keep thinking
about all of the activities I need and
want to cram into the next 15 school days.
We will be doing Holidays Around the World and preparing for our winter performance, along with
teaching all the regular stuff. Even
though we just had a week off for Thanksgiving, I am already looking forward to
Winter Break. I am wanting
to
plan a little getaway for my husband and I during that time. Next week we have Parent-Teacher conferences,
so I am needing to get prepared for those. This month, I
will be encouraging my students to show kindness to each other, at home, and
around school. A kindness elf will be
arriving in our classroom today. Each
day he will bring a mission of kindness for my kids to complete. I am really looking forward to these
activities.
I
hope everyone has an awesome week
back. Don’t forget to hit up the
Cyber Monday
(and Tuesday) Sale
on Teachers Pay Teachers. You can save 28% at most
stores (including mine) by entering the code: TPTCyber.
I plan to stock up for upcoming units.
I love the idea about the Kindness Mission.
ReplyDeleteI like to do a Random Act of Kindness at least once a week during the year... and try to up it during the holiday season. This year, I am hoping to inspire my kiddos to do the same. I like the phrase "Kindness Mission" because it seems like much more of a challenge to the kids and I think it will take much easier!
Thanks! :)

Your Kindness Mission is a very nice idea! It's always a good thing to be kind, not just during the holidays, but year round. The holidays are a great reminder of that. ;) Hope you get your winter getaway squared away soon! Enjoy and happy holidays!
