Concept Book - During the Holidays... Ideas for Use


  • Enlarge the 'During the Holidays' book into a class size A3 or A4, so that each child has a 'During the Holidays'...A4 or A3 page.  Each child contributes writing about their holiday, including an illustration.  Use the contributions in a Sharing Circle.  Make into a fantastic class book to be placed in the Class Library for Silent Reading Time.
  • Ask the children to bring in a photo of a holiday activity.  Pop the photos onto the pages and ask the children to write about what is happening in their photo.
  • Copy the individual books onto A5 size.  Depending on the levels of your children, you might ask them to write one sentence per page.
  • Older children could be asked to write about their holidays using the 'Experience Plan' of - Who, What, When, Where, Why and Feelings.
  • Don't forget to use your own holiday experiences for modelled writing first.

  • I saw an interesting post on Pinterest the other day, showing a plastic, sandwich size, zip-lock bag that had had a piece of duct tape run along the base. The duct tape provided reinforcing that allowed holes to be punched through the bag for storage in a binder. I imagine you could run the tape down the side of larger zip-lock bags for a similar effect. This may not solve all your storage issues, but if there\'s just a few small games to go with a unit that\'s otherwise stored in a binder, it might help!

  • I was just thinking the other day that I needed some matching cards for numbers over 100 then today I came across the new parts of speech posters and thought I\'d check out the \"What\'s New\" section and there I found exactly what I had been wanting. Thank you so much for your wonderful resources. This is the first place I check when looking for resources and I\'ve been able to build a great collection since moving to the lower school grades last year. Thanks again!
