Product Description

The overwhelming success of the first issues of the Teaching & Learning Company's magazine, Holidays & Seasonal Celebrations, has led to the compilation of the best ideas and activities into one, easy-to-use resource. The selections in this book represent some of the more innovative and frequently requested materials from our first four issues. The recurring holidays, seasons and themes are always timely and never out-of-date.

Each season includes pages of clip art, a Kid Space feature (for school yard learning adventures) and a variety of holiday and seasonal crafts, projects, stories, poems, ideas and activities.

There are bus tag patterns for those hectic first days of school as well as get-acquainted activities, welcoming bulletin boards and room displays, parties, piñatas, pumpkins, poems and puppets to help celebrate fall. Winter is a wonder of stories, crafts, learning activities, recipies and international celebrations. Spring and summer festivities include outdoor fun, books to share, reproducible pages and patterns and much, much more.

Here is the answer to the many requests for copies of back issues of the magazine, to the classroom teachers' ever-present need for timely material.
