If you have an Elf On A Shelf in your classroom, a super-fun writing extension is to have your students keep a journal of the elf's daily adventures.  I've included prompts for PK as well as older kiddo's.   Encourage them to illustrate their page.  Make the journals out of file folders and have students decorate their cover.

Help students learn to count forwards, backwards and by 10's.  Print; laminate; trim and have students put together, or run off copies for each child and have them cut and glue to the numbered grid.  You can also make a puzzle flip booklet using all 3 puzzles stapled to the top in mixed up fashion.  Children flip the strips to find the puzzle they are working on.  Have children pick a partner; challenge them to see who can be the first to put their puzzle together.

After reading Eric Carle's The Very Busy Spider, have each student fill out the student page.  Collect and collate into a class book. To add extra pizzazz, print off 2 copies of your class's school photo, and cut your students' heads into ovals.  Glue a set to the webs on the cover (You can leave them as kids or turn them into spiders with a black marker) and include a photo of yourself in the top web.  Have students glue their photo to the spider on their page.

Make these sparkling webs after you read The Very Busy Spider. I mixed Elmer's glue with white paint. A black construction paper circle is placed in a metal cake pan.  A dollop of the paint-glue is put in the middle and a marble is placed on top.  Students manuever the pan to "spin" a web.  When they are happy with the results, they sprinkle opalescent or silver glitter on their creation.  I've included a colored web with the poem on it.
