What educators are saying
I so appreciated having this in the month of December. Next year, I think I will start it a week earlier so that we can have them hanging in class a bit longer.
My students have loved using this resource in the room! It has helped with engagement and made their learning fun!
Description
This craftivity pack includes:
- A sweater outline for students to decorate and make as ugly as possible.
- A letter to send home with instructions for students on how to decorate their sweater at home if you choose to have students do this part of the assignment at home instead of at school.
- Graphic organizers for students to fill out to guide them in writing about their "Ugly Sweater." You can choose from either a basic one for the younger students to write a simple paragraph or a more detailed one for older students if you want them to write a longer essay with separate paragraphs for the main idea, supporting details, and conclusion.
- 3 styles of writing paper to choose from for students to write on to convince others of why their sweater is the ugliest of all.
