I love this picture because I could use this in my classroom when I talked about Christmas traditions.  When I taught first grade, our class would take a two week "trip" around the world to learn about 10 country's traditions.  We would start the Friday before with a look at our own American traditions as well as each students' family traditions.  This picture is wonderful because in my family we have hot chocolate and I love to add a candy cane for peppermint taste.  This image could show the class one of my family traditions.

Here is my own picture that I licensed with Creative Commons (it's a card I made for my mom's birthday)

The inside says "Happy birthday cupcake".

  1. I love the card you made for your mother. I have two friends who are scrap bookers, and I find my self in awe whenever I watch them take bits of paper and turn them into fabulous photo albums or greeting cards. Images are an important part of my school day, too. I'm using a ton of them to help my second graders become better readers=
