January is crazy month! Right after the holiday rush you have to keep those kiddos engaged somehow. We've gathered our favorite ideas from over the years and compiled them for your viewing pleasure. ;) Feel free to download or pin to Pinterest for later.
Q-Tip Snowflake
 | |||||||||
| We write this poem on the back (on lined paper) Snowflake, snowflake Falling down On the trees And on the ground. |
Magically Appearing Picture
 | |||||
| This magically appearing snow scene can be made by mixing 3 parts of Epsom salt with 1 part of water. Stir really well! Use a paint brush to create a winter scene and wait for it do dry to see your picture! |
Marshmallow Snowman
 |
| The marshmallow snowman's body is made by dipping a large marshmallow into white paint. The buttons and face are made by dipping a small marshmallow into black paint. The accessories are made out of paper. |

I also have this fun word search that I made for January that you can download free {here}.

I found Jan Brett's website and I just loooooooove it. I printed, cut, laminated and attached a popsicle stick to the animal masks from "The Mitten" and my class and I are going to retell the story by using the masks and acting out each of the part. I am going to use a white sheet as the mitten and my students will have to crawl in it as we retell.
