I love to read this poem every year.

Day 10: reindeer
In the picture, you can see my mother's 1958 Night Before Christmas “magic singing book“. No idea what they were really called in English, but it looks like the original patent is from the US. There's a 45 rpm record engraved into the book's hard front cover. We were only allowed to play it very occasionally, to avoid damaging the record-player's needle.

🎄 Tagged. We used to read it to my children every year on Christmas Eve. At some point they got too old and busy and we don‘t do this anymore. 😔
🎅🏼 Santa is my favorite! In our house, there remain gifts from Santa under the tree because we believe. Santa exists in each of us as we do good deeds for others, especially this time of year. There really is magic in Christmas. ❤️
Thanks for the tag @EadieB !
I read the version illustrated by Marcin Nowakowski this time, and the illustrations are beautiful!
But I really liked this little addition at the end about Christmas traditions, and now I need to read this one 🤣

Reading this late on Christmas Eve before Santa visits.

We used to read this every Christmas Eve, but then our book fell apart, so we stopped. I think it‘s a tradition I‘ll carry on in my house, though.

I have the book (gifted to me from my mom many years ago) and we read it every year. This year I also listened to this audiobook edition, read by the fabulous Meryl Strep and including about 40 minutes worth of holiday music.

What better example of a #sleighride than Santa in this classic Holiday book. 🎅

This movie is one of my favorite Holiday movies. It‘s hysterical, cringe-worthy (especially this scene in church) and makes me laugh till I cry. If you haven‘t seen it, you must! #TheNightBefore #WinterGames #JingleBallers #holidaymovie

I absolutely loved this swap last year and am so excited that @MaleficentBookDragon is hosting again!!! #jolabokaflodswap
This P by Clement Moore is a great way to introduce poems especially if it is around the holidays. I would implement this as a RA or CR in my classroom. The UDL 2.2 in order to better clarify how to read this poem fluently. The ESOL strategy I would focus on is 8 to go along with the UDL in understanding how to read a poem with the pauses and flow. #UCFLAE3414F19
