Moose on the Loose... Day 1

Moose on the Loose... Day 1

That's right! Moose on the Loose is my classroom version of Elf on the Shelf. This is such a fun activity to do in the classroom as a countdown to our holiday party and winter break. The students absolutely la-la-love seeing what kind of mischief our moose get into each night while we are gone... and this year I am going to record our entire Moose on the Loose adventure on our classroom blog... FUN!

Meet Nick and Noel, our Moose on the Loose...

Nick and Noel have come down from the North Pole to watch over our class and report to Santa all the good choices our amazing firsties are making in the classroom. How totally stinkin' cute are Nick and Noel?

So for Day 1 of our Moose on the Loose classroom adventure, Nick and Noel arrived in a basket with a book and letter for the class. The book, "The Smallest Gift of Christmas", by Peter Reynolds was the perfect story to kick off our December holiday spirit and celebrations. I was absolutely amazed with how well the students were able to tell me the central message of the story <insert proud teacher moment here>.

Here is the letter the class received, as well a picture of Nick and Noel with the book they brought for the class...

I cannot wait to see what Nick and Noel have in store for us on Day 2...
