Happy Winter Break!

Dear Teachers and Librarians,

There are only a few days left in 2015. This is a perfect time to reflect on everything you’ve done well this year. Think of the wonderful books you’ve shared, hugs you’ve given, and minds you’ve opened. Though we are overworked, underpaid, and sometimes underappreciated, we’re some of the luckiest people on the planet. Teachers and librarians get to change lives and witness tiny miracles on a daily basis. As you enter 2016, affirm that you are doing one of the toughest, most important jobs, and then revel in the fact that you can! May good things come to you and your students in the New Year. Check back soon for fresh ideas for your classroom. They’re coming!

Candy Cane Math

What’s on the minds of every elementary student this time of year? Santa, presents, and CANDY! Why not give them what they want with some Candy Cane Math?

Print out our measuring sheet (in color or black and white), purchase miniature candy canes, and have a great time!
