Christmas Poems and Books
I've Been Waiting For Christmas
I've been waiting for Christmas,
And it's almost here.
I've been waiting for Christmas,
Santa's getting near.
Can't you hear the sleigh bells ringing?
Reindeer up so high.
Can't you hear the children singing,
As they watch the sky?
Christmas Wreaths
Our Christmas wreaths are fat and round,
Made of the woodsy things we found.
We tied brown cones upon the green,
And stuck red berries in between.
Upon the wreath on our front door,
We tied red ribbon from the store.
Close your eyes,
Listen to the skies,
All is calm,
All is well,
Soon you'll hear Kris Kringle and his jingle bells bringing...
Santa
Two merry blue eyes
A very little nose
A long snowy beard
And cheeks like a rose
A round chubby man
A big bulging pack
Hurrah for Old Santa
We're glad he's come back!

Special Occasion Ideas for the Classroom-Gifts
Special Occasion Ideas for the Classroom-Gifts
"Special occasions give students a chance to recognize special people: moms, dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents, teachers, secretaries, school custodians, librarians, and more. Stretch your students' creative thinking, writing skills, and problem solving skills as they create projects to honor special people on special occasions or just as a surprise “thank you.” Check out this collection for classroom ideas and custom-made gifts (both "hard copy" and electronic). Create memories for special people as your learners show what they know and how much they care."Source: http://www.teachersfirst.com/spectopics/specocc.cfm?utm_source=TF+Update+-+12%2F16%2F12&utm_campaign=Update_121216&utm_medium=email
