Laura Kebart here, and I love assigning these toolkit lessons so we can take some of that holiday craziness and turn it into productivity🤪

I've found that this time of year does bring out a bit of the 'little kid' excitement around the season, and it's so fun to incorporate some of that childhood vibe--that energy!--into your classroom.

I think you'll find that these two poems + the accompanying lessons combine fun, energy, and rigor while pulling together skills we're constantly needing to review: reading, writing, speaking, and listening as it relates to vocabulary, grammar, reading + writing, and more.
