Description
Your students will love this fun Christmas activity! Hide each of these twelve numbered elves around your classroom. Students use the recording sheet to tell where they find each elf.
Older students will enjoy keeping the hiding places a secret for a few days or even the whole week. Another option is to play the game in one session, possibly at your class holiday party.
Two recording sheets are provided, one that requires more writing for older students and one in which students simply circle the elves they have found.
