Elf on the Shelf Fun!

Last year I decided to add an elf on the shelf to my classroom. I was a little skeptical, but I knew many students had an Elf on the Shelf at their homes. This ended up being a lot of fun, maybe even more fun for me! ;) So again this December I pulled out the book and elf. My new class of students brought even more excitement for our elf.

I strongly recommend adding an Elf on the Shelf to your classroom. The students started each day eager to find him and what trouble he may have gotten into. Here are some places our elf, Wallie's adventures in our classroom this school year.

Adding an elf to your classroom brings a lot of holiday joy and excitement, while still reminding the students that good behavior is expected. Though December is a short month because of Winter Break, the students are so excited for the holidays they often have a hard time following rules and directions. The addition of my Classroom Elf, has helped remind the students that we are still in school, and everyone is watching! ;) Try it...I know you will find some value and add a little bit of enjoyment during the month of December! Happy Holidays!
