Hey, Hey! Just popping in to share with you some pics from our Polar Express Day. Monday, was our last full day before Christmas break and we had our Polar Express Day. We did rotations with Kindergarten, and each teacher had a different activity at their stop on the Polar Express. At my stop we played some snowman games.... we played pin the nose on the snowman {idea from
here} and worked in groups to to turn our classmates into a snowman.
My door....we found the idea last year online, but the link is dead to give credit. sorry!
One of the Kidnergarten teachers door.
The other three rotations consisted of making a Christmas tree snack, making a snowflake ornament, and magic reindeer food. Since I can't be two places at once, I have no pics to share of any of this. Sorry! :(
After we finished our rotations we watched the movie, enjoyed hot cocoa and some yummy doughnuts and cookies!
And here are some this and that pics of what we've been up to.....

What Zack the elf has been up to....
He got into the stamps and left us a message!
He colored a picture of an Elf.
He listened to Pete the Cat in the listening center.
He broke into the gummy bear jar by my desk... on this day I accidentally knocked him over!!!! EEK! The kids were so upset and afraid he had lost his magic... but one little sweetie reminded everyone that Miss Elisabeth didn't mean to touch him (knock him over) and that he only loses his magic if someone means to touch him. :) This same little sweetie told me not to worry. Precious!!
The next day our Elf was found writing a tattle to the tattle monster telling on Miss Elisabeth for knocking him over! haha
There were a few more days that I forgot to take a pic of...... He also got into a marshmallow fight, played a board game, and played with the exercise dice with some of his stuffed animal friends. Zack will be missed, but he will be back next year!
And last but not least, here is a pic of the pinterest inspired gift I made for some of my teacher pals. :)
Well that's all I got for now... I hope everyone is having a great week!!
