Yes, it's tacky, but students in
the early childhood classes loved it.
Simply add a door and windows to a folding display
board, add Velcro strips, and invest in some dollar store holiday items. Many of my items were cast-offs.
Pair with a book about a gingerbread house and teach the adjectives big, little, noisy, rough or bumpy, smooth, hard, and
soft. Students chose a holiday decoration, used one or more adjectives to
describe it, and then placed it on the board and told its location (next to Santa, over the
window, etc).

Introduce the adjectives by presenting objects (rock, cotton, sandpaper, and bells) with pictures. |
Enjoy!
