Today, to kick off the holiday season, 1st grade celebrated Grinch Day. Special thanks to Deanna Jump for her fantastic TpT Grinch mini-unit and to Cara from First Grade Parade for the initial idea to have a Grinch Day.
We started by reading How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Next, we described the Grinch using the chart poster I drew...not perfect, but pretty acceptable for my free hand attempt!
Then we completed some activities that I copied from the Grinch mini-unit - they kept the kiddos engaged and busy. Fourth, we did the Grinch grin activity and aren't they cute?!?!...
Finally, I sent them all home...UGH without their green candy canes! So, the Grinch left a note on our white board wishing them a Merry "Grinch"mas. How on earth did I stay up 'til 11:00pm last night making these tags & forget to pass them out? Oh well, tomorrow's another day and Grinch Day was FABULOUS!
Now my kiddos will get a nice weekend treat, courtesy of the Grinch - Happy Friday!
{UPDATE: They thought Taylor the Elf brought them...all is well in 1st grade!}
