A Groovy Christmas

I haven't been this excited in a looooonnnnnngggggg time!


I finally had to tell myself to STOP because I kept adding to this packet!!!

I didn't think you would still want to be doing Christmas in January even though I know you love Pete the Cat as much as I do!

In the packet are 8 literacy centers and 6 math centers....and let me tell you that they are beyond precious once you print them.

Here is a little preview of all of the Groovy Greatness in this 120 page collection of cuteness!




Hop over to my TpT store to grab it.

Leave a comment telling me your favorite Christmas song and I'll send 2 winners this packet or any item from my TpT store. Be sure and leave your email. I'll pick the winner tonight or tomorrow. =)

Karyn and Olwyn - check your email!

Thank you everyone else for your sweet comments. I am going to listen to some Christmas music and add some more activities to this packet. It seems to be growing and growing! =)

From My Heart to Yours,

    Heather this is just precious! I can't tell you how much my little struggling readers love Pete the Cat! You are so creative!

    My favorite Christmas story is Mary's Boy Child. The very first time I heard it was when I was in a long term substitute position at a private Catholic school and my students sang it in a pageant. It made me cry it was so beautiful. I've loved it dearly ever since. :o)

    My favourite Christmas song is called Mrs. Claus and is on an old cd I play all the time in class at this time of year. It is all about all the hard work she does behind the scenes!Sort of like teachers working for hours before and after school to get it all done!!!!

    As I have said before and as I will keep on saying, you are awesome. Thanks for all you do.
