Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer!

So, usually the last day before our Christmas/Winter break we do a fun Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer graphing activity which keeps students engaged, let's us have fun, and keeps the sanity right before we are out for school. I have done this activity for 5 years, and my kids love it.

First we sing the song, and then I give students the a tally chart to record how often each word happens in the song! We then graph the results of the song (picture graph, bar graph, or line plot) depending upon what we are studying at the time.

Sometimes, I change the words on our graph to sight words to help some of my kiddos work on sight words.  For more information about Rudolph graphing, check it out here!.

No Prep Christmas Math And ELA Activities

The month of December is often a very hard month to keep kids engaged, especially with their thoughts of the upcoming Christmas.  Many times you need a way to assess student learning or keep them entertained with fun activities. For this month, I have created a variety of differentiated no prep December activities! Check them out at my store here!
