What’s Inside My Ugly Sweater Paper Craft
If you’re racing to figure out what cute project to quickly put up in the hallway for winter, look no further. Students can complete the craft in one class period. And you can use the accompanying writing prompts to post alongside your sweater projects.
Basically, each child receives a copy of the template. Then, they color everything, cut out the parts, and glue it together. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!
