Letter for Rudolph, Linky Party

Tammy from "Dots of Fun" had a great freebie giveaway this week. I had such a busy week, I missed out on grabbing most of the images, so I bought the set this morning. It was worth it to me to buy the set, even just for the bell! It reminds me of this bell which holds great sentimental value for me. My dad gave it to my mom when I was a teenager. My parents are both gone now, but when my son was a child, my mom gave it to us. We put it on our tree every year. It has always been Austie's job to place it on the tree, even now that he is 20 years old! I have it set aside for him to put on the tree when he gets home from college for Christmas next week!

Anyway, since I seem to have reindeer on the mind this morning (see previous post) ,

 I decided to make a template for my class to write to Rudolph, which always proves to be lots of fun!

Reindeer Word Art

Happy Sunday! What do you have planned today? I couldn't sleep so I got up at 5:30. AM. On the Weekend! Blah!

We have 2 weeks until break. How about you? 

On the plus side I have gotten a few things accomplished already including ironing my clothes for the upcoming week and making some word art just for fun.

Here it is . . .in 3 colors. Made to fit an 8 X 10 frame.

Symmetry and Santa

Happy Monday! Well, I guess Mondays aren't always happy, but we are on our way to Tuesday! We have been learning about Symmetry in Math and have recently completed 2 projects that utilized the concept. Here they are . . .

For the reindeer we used half a pattern to trace on a folded piece of paper.

For the bells we put drops of paint on one side of the paper and then folded in half and rubbed gently to spread the paint.

We also recently completed a Santa. Here it is . . .

I will post the pattern for you as soon as I remember to bring it home to scan! Hopefully tomorrow!

Have a restful evening!

Little Elf Craftivity Freebie {and Word Art!}

Hi everyone! Can you believe it is Thanksgiving week?! Do you have school this week? We had school today and will tomorrow, but are off after that. I hope you have fun plans for the holiday weekend. Are you planning to brave any Black Friday (or Thursday Night) Sales? I am glad that the couple of objects we are going for are actually offered Thursday night so that we don't have to get up so early! Yay!
