Introducing ......Kringle the Elf

Yes, I broke down and adopted an elf on the shelf for my 5th grade classroom. At first I thought that it might be a little too juvenile for my 5th graders but judging from the reaction of my kids today...they love the idea.

Our elf's name is Kringle and he left the kids a  letter on the Promethean board and a platter of powdered sugar donuts.

I found some cute activities and ideas on daily Elf antics online (thank you to all who have shared).

I will be taking pictures and blogging (hopefully daily) to chronicle Kringle's activities in our classroom.

Follow along for a little holiday fun.....
