Reindeer in a cup is the perfect snack to make wit

Reindeer in a cup is the perfect snack to make with your students in December or when doing a reindeer unit. You can use the mini book provided to follow the directions to make this yummy snack. While you make it, you will read directions, work on teamwork and end up with something delicious. Your students can also predict, survey, graph, sequence and do a little math with their data. In addition, there is a fun reindeer in cup craft, reindeer headband, class graphing tools, and differentiated writing ideas. Also included is a donation letter for parents and mini recipe cards to send home and share with their families. If you enjoyed pumpkin in a cup, you will love this one too! #reindeercraft #reindeeractivities #snackactivity #snackinacup #tpt #firstgraderoars
