🎄December brings gingerbread, holiday lights, penguins, cocoa, stockings and snow into the kindergarten classroom, and this packet turns that excitement into steady math and literacy practice. Sixty-six black and white pages cover four weeks, with two levels on many activities so the same lesson can fit different readers and counters.

This Kindergarten December Activities Packet is a 66-page, black and white, no-prep collection for kindergarten, with review value for first grade and for homeschool. Its December and Christmas themes run through gingerbread, holiday lights, penguins, cocoa, stockings and snow, so the seasonal fun carries the practice instead of competing with it.
Literacy pages come in two levels and cover sight words, word families, CVC words, beginning and middle sounds, syllables, rhyme and real-versus-nonsense words. Children color by sight word, hunt and tally words they know, spin a sight word, sort by syllables, match beginning sounds to gifts and build sentences by cutting and gluing words in order.
Math pages also come in two levels and cover counting to 10 and to 20, ten frames, number neighbors, comparing numbers, addition and subtraction, patterns, measurement with cubes, graphing, tallying, telling time, shapes and story problems. Cookie addition, melting snowballs subtraction, number word stockings and a color-by-sum mystery gift keep the numbers inside the holiday theme.
Writing work draws on a December word wall and four prompts: The Best Gift, If I Were a Reindeer, Winter Fun and a holiday letter. A gingerbread friend craft, three coloring pages and a December Superstar certificate round out the month, and answer keys are included.
For planning, the packet includes a 4-week December study plan, a daily literacy and math schedule, teacher notes, a two-level differentiation guide, pre-reader support, ways to use the pages, Common Core connections and printing tips. It fits December morning work, math centers, literacy centers, small groups, independent practice and early finishers.
