Elf Antics

Our elf arrived with much pomp and circumstance on Monday afternoon. He was quite cold from his journey from the North Pole. Our secretary hand delivered our very special package and the kids were thrilled! There was much debate about an appropriate name for our elf (a boy), but after a secret vote Snowflake won. One particular little boy was NOT thrilled about this! As we filled out our elf journals and answered questions about our new elf, he was extremely hesitant to write Snowflake's name. It took him the entire activity period to write it! And, he is the only non-believer in the class. See my previous post to see the journal I created. Our elf has been so sweet so far. On Thursday he brought us a bag to put our letters to Santa so it is easier for him to carry them back to the North Pole.
The kiddos have had a great time writing letters to Santa, so much so that I had to limit the number of children at Work on Writing during each round of Daily 5. Click on the picture for the download from TPT.
