Christmas Expanding Vocabulary & Imagination Fun!!

Are you loving the EET companion packs for the holidays/seasonal themes!?  I am FINALLY done with my Christmas version and I think you will love it!

There are two different types of activities included!

Expanding Vocabulary Christmas Tree Game:
-Print and laminate a tree for each student.
-Print and laminate the ornament pieces and place them in the middle.
-Print and laminate the visual/directions and display them for your students.  If you have a Smart Board you can display this page on it for your students to see while playing.  This will help them understand what they need in order to win!

-Place the object pile in the middle.  Students will take turns picking an object.  On each object card is an EET “bead”.  They must express the describing concept requested (EET bead).  Once they express that description, they can locate the ornament piece that has that EET bead on it. Students will take turns picking an object and describing it while adding decorations to their tree until all of the cards run out.  The first student to fill their Christmas tree with all 7 types of ornaments/EET beads is the winner!  (**48 object cards included!**)


Expanding Imagination Christmas Writing Fun:   Recommended order for each activity:

-Use pictures to help students practice using EET to describe.
-Show students a model of your creation and how you used EET
-Let students expand their imaginations and draw/write using the EET model
-Let students share their creations with the group and use the EET strand to help guide them! 
-5 different writing activities included with a Christmas theme!

-Can also be used to work on compare/contrast.
