Elf on a Classroom Shelf

Do you use Elf on a Shelf in your classroom?  I sure do!  In fact, one of my lovelies from last year already stopped by last week to see if the classroom elf had arrived yet!  Too cute.  My elf usually arrives two weeks before Christmas and adds some major excitement to the classroom.  This year, I wanted my students to document the elf’s adventures by keeping an elf journal.  I browsed TPT for some files and couldn’t find just what I was looking for, so I made it!  Introducing…

{Newly updated!!!}

The file is filled with activities such as:

I have one last thing to tell you about!  If you are going to be doing any other Cyber Monday shopping, you will want to check this out!!!  (I feel like this is one of the best kept secrets for online shopping!)

Have you ever heard of EBATES?  EBATES is a site where you can get paid to shop online.  It sounds like a scam, but trust me, it’s legit!  I’ve gotten paid several times in the past!  Basically, the way it works, is that instead of going directly to the website you want to shop at, you access the website through EBATES.  For example, instead of going to www.target.com, you first log-in to your EBATES account and click on their Target link.  EBATES has a partnership with over 1,500 stores!  Each store has its own percentage that it credits back to the buyer just for shopping through EBATES.  Unfortunately… no TPT just yet :( … however, here are some of my favorites and their current cash back rates: 

1) Target: 2% cash back
2) Sephora: 8% cash back… wow!!!
3) Amazon: 4% cash back on toys
4) Office Max: 4% cash back
5) Kohls: 6% cash back
6) Groupon: 3% cash back
The percentages may not seem like a lot, but it definitely adds up if you do a decent amount of online shopping!  Click on the button below if you want to check it out!  Happy shopping!
