Celebrating holidays and special occasions in the classroom, comes in different forms. Sometimes, you may celebrate doing a craft, read a book about a particular topic, invite mystery readers, eat some yummy cupcakes, or have your traditional 'festival' or small party.
I enjoy making something for any occasional. I do. I make the kids work hard, but they know a holiday means, we will do something to celebrate. I think it is important to have fun things going on, that break the routine a bit :)
I've had some time to think of something new I'd like to try. It involves buttons, clear buttons, that is.
I went to Michael's and purchased two entire rows of these buttons. Don't forget to get your teacher discount when you are there...sometimes I do :(
Clear 3" craft buttons. Three for $1.99 minus my teacher discount. Not bad!
I then created 45 different buttons including major holidays and school celebrations.
Find them HERE.
And here is the TPT preview :)
What do you think? Is this something you'd like to add to your celebrations throughout the year?
I would like to thank my amazing friend Jaime! This girl is always there for me. She gave me some fabulous ideas :)
I'd love to send two of you this file. All you have to do is give me two NEW ideas to add. The last preview picture has all the ones I included already. Don't forget to leave your e-mail.
I'd say to add Happy United Nations Day. We celebrate this day in our school!
