Christmas Party Prep for Parent Crafts
We made our parent’s Christmas tree ornaments (which I actually turned into magnets)!! Here’s how we did it.
Step 1-
3 craft sticks (Paint them green – finger paint with red dots.)
1 half-sized craft stick (Paint it brown.)
Step 2-
Teacher job… Take a picture of each student and develop.
Student job… Cut the picture out around head and shoulders then glue to the green paper.
Step 3-
Teacher job… Hot glue their sticks onto their pictures.
Step 4-
Put tape on the back because when the craft sticks are cut in half, they can get sharp and splintery.
Now, you have ideas that are inexpensive and easy for you and your students. For more ideas for Christmas in the classroom, check out my post on Christmas around the World.
