Take me Back Tuesday: Polar Express Day AND A little FREEBIE

I'm linking up with the fab Hope King to bring you "Take me Back Tuesday!"
I am one of those teachers that reinvents the wheel each year because I get bored easily, but y'all I am running on EMPTY.  I am so glad to have these plans and resources from last year to get me through the last day!

Many of my memories growing up revolve around books. I was the kid who couldn't wait to go to the beach for a week because I could read a chapter book a day and there wasn't anything to stand in my way.

One my my favorite books to this day is The Polar Express.  I know many of you have had Polar Express days in your classroom for a long time. Well, I am jumping on board. :)


Although my day will be gobs of fun (complete with some moms delivering hot chocolate in costume), there is still learning that has to occur. So I have 3 math and 3 literacy centers/activities. 


Here is how I expect my day to go:

8:00 Kids enter with their train tickets (I think I may ask our principal to punch their tickets as the conductor).

8:10  Morning Work

8:30 Read the book

9:00 Respond to the book

 9:15 Literacy Centers and recording sheets.






 10:45 Math Whole Group

11:15 Math Centers



After lunch, recess, and specials we will come back in the room to watch the movie! I am planning on trying to do a craft too- I will let you know when my friend Stephanie gets the craft finished!

Like I always do- the unit is 20 % off today and tomorrow!

UPDATE:  I had a sweet buyer point out that one of my Spin the Words options would put you on the naughty list...OOPS!  You can snag the clean version of the spinners right here:
