Fun Powerpoint Presentations and
Teaching Resources for Christmas and Winter
Welcome to my Christmas and Winter powerpoint lesson plans page that focuses on
fun powerpoint teaching resources to use during the months of December and January.
This page contains English grammar powerpoint presentations
and math lessons involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and money.
Since it is difficult to describe each of my winter powerpoint
lesson plans in words, I have made a video of each presentation for you
to watch. These videos will give you an idea of what each lesson activity contains, as
well as helpful teaching tips.
I hope that you find these videos useful, but please be aware that
I am an extreme novice at making videos!
I have designed my powerpoint presentations to be engaging to your students.
The powerpoint lessons on this page are designed with bright winter or Christmas
backgrounds and animations.
I use funny and attention grabbing animations when I am designing
my Christmas and winter powerpoint lesson plans. I also use colorful seasonal background templates for
the powerpoint presentations that I prepare.
My powerpoint lesson plans have been designed
using two fonts: Arial Black and Comic Sans. I chose these fonts because
they are the most widely found on most computers, and they will not
change the style and format when viewed on different computers.
Many students find traditional grammar and math exercises boring and dull.
I encourage you to use these engaging Christmas and winter powerpoint lesson plans to bring
life to these typically boring lessons.

I just wanted to take a minute to say THANK YOU for the free downloads
that are included in your newsletter Teachers Have Class each month,
I look forward to receiving every single issue.
I absolutely love your products and what you do. I am so excited to use
your resources through my teaching journey. Keep up the awesome work.
Happy Holidays!
Your lesson plans for Stellaluna,
Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving,
and How the Grinch Stole Christmas
have saved me so much planning time
this year. My Gr. 3 students really enjoyed completing the projects
that you designed for each of these books. I was able to create great
Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas displays in my classroom this
year with their projects. Thanks for sharing your ideas and for saving me time.

My students loved your seasonal powerpoint
games for Halloween and
Thanksgiving. They thought they were playing a game
instead of reviewing grammar ;-) I've already purchased all of your other
holiday powerpoint lesson plans. Keep making more of these great activities,
more POWER to you Heidi!

I just wanted to say thank you for the most amazing teaching resources that I have ever
come across in my thirty years of teaching. I have used many of your
book report
sets this year and my students absolutely loved them. What was particularly
pleasing was seeing some of my reluctant readers (especially the boys) really
wanting to read books and complete the activities. Keep up the great work!

I feel so fortunate to have found your website and I have referred several
of my co-workers to your website. Just for the month of January, there were
three teachers displaying your book reports. I had the trophy reports, my neighbor
to the left had the computer reports,
and my neighbor to the right had the
birthday cake reports.
Thank you so very much for all of your work!

I'm writing to tell you that my students just finished the
Charlie
and the Chocolate Factory group projects. They worked so hard, and
the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory projects turned out great! We had them to
show for student led conferences. The parents were very impressed, and
so were many of the other teachers and my
principal. They all commented on my students' work and your creative templates. My students
had so much fun doing these projects. I also used
the multiplication pizza sticker charts. My students
loved those as well!! Thank you so much for all of your amazing products.

I want to write and tell you that I love the resources that you make and
share with us, they have truly been helpful to me and my students.
I have been teaching grammar rules in a more exciting way, and I owe
it all to you. Your grammar
powerpoint lessons have been such a blessing!
Thank you very much!

Thank you so much for letting me
know about the new book report templates. I
have been anxiously watching for the house book report
project to be posted on your site, so I was excited to be able to purchase it today.
It is absolutely adorable. I must tell you that I have received
so many compliments from other teachers this year about my students'
book reports that
I have displayed in our school halls. Thank you again for all
of your wonderful ideas....you make my life so much easier as a teacher!

My students are working on
their Charlie and Chocolate Factory
projects that I bought on your website. One of my students said how nice
the other character wheels were and he said, "Besides this is just fun!"
Not bad for a third grade boy!!

I am in awe of what you
have accomplished and created for those of us teaching in the public sector.
Good for you for taking time off and self publishing. Your enthusiasm is
contagious and your generosity is amazing. I recently provided a
reading in-service for the K-5 staff at my school. I listed your
website as a "must" to visit.
Thanks you for your expertise, creativity, and heartfelt enthusiasm. You are
an inspiration to new and veteran teachers and a model for those of us who
have not had the guts to go out on our own. You did it!!! I suggest that
you go on the speaking circuit and share your knowledge and creativity
at the International Reading Association Meetings and the State Reading Associations.
