Winter Crafts for the Classroom

freebies, Math, Winter Holidays

Here in upstate New York, we’ve learned to embrace the cold weather and celebrate winter! To help stop the post-holiday slump that comes in January, we always make sure to incorporate fun interactive activities into our lessons. That is where our Winter Math and ELA Crafts come in!

We love using these crafts as part of our guided math and guided reading rotations. After all of the holiday themed crafts, our students love getting the chance to be creative again! Plus, it is a great way to redecorate all of your display boards after the holidays!

Each hands-on activity is aligned to common core standards so your class can celebrate while also reinforcing the necessary skills. Your students will go crazy over these adorable crafts! Check out our Winter crafts below, and score not a fun freebie while you’re here!

The key to teacher survival is having a teacher bestie 🩷 While we now work apart, the foundation we created at our previous school has led to lifelong friendship, trust and someone to lean on for any and all things! I know my life would not be complete without having known “Miss Stephanie”. From unofficially co-teaching self-contained classrooms, monthly chapter book read alouds, Fun Fridays, creating an adapted Cheerleading program, writing curriculum and so much more! Now more than ever I am so grateful for these memories and our common passions and drive! You might not find yourself a Stephanie, but if you find a bestie that’s half as amazing, you’re in a good place 🩷
