Winter Break Fun

Help me give my students warm, fun and engaging activities for winter break.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dennis's classroom raised $442

My Project

I would like to send my students home with fun, engaging activities to keep them busy during winter break.

The blankets, fuzzy socks and hot chocolate will keep them warm and comfy while they spend their winter break at home.

My students are very active and need things to keep their minds occupied while they are off from school. The activity books and scratch pads will allow them to use their imaginations. They love telling and hearing jokes so they will be able to keep their families entertained by telling them jokes with the joke cards.

Please help give my students a fun and warm winter break.
