Winter Activities:
Sledding, ice skating, tubing and more are all activities that kids love to do in Winter! Why not incorporate these activities into your classroom?
- Ask the kids what their favorite part of winter is? Then incorporate those activities onto your bulletin board. Make a winter scene and let those who prefer sledding be the ones sliding down a hill, put the skaters on the ice, and let the builders build a snow fort. Use pictures of your students and let them help! Here is an example of how one classroom did this!
- Hot chocolate is a favorite after spending a day out doors. This classroom had a great idea by turning their doors into mugs of hot chocolate!
With a little creativity and research you can find the perfect winter decorations to warm the hearts of your students!
