December is a CRAZY time for the upper elementary classroom. The kids are crazy as they look forward to the holiday season – whether they celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or nothing but the winter solstice and New Year’s.
The 31 no prep activity ideas below can help you contain some of the crazy in your 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students. There are winter activity ideas for classrooms or schools that do not celebrate the holidays, Christmas ideas (and 1 activity for Hanukkah!), and some other no prep ideas that can be used any time of year.
