The Cobbler and the Elves

Today we read the Brothers Grimm fairy tale of The Cobbler and the Elves.
Students kept their hands busy molding play dough into shoe shapes, elf shapes, etc while teacher Melanie told the enchanting story of the little elves who work through the night making quality leather shoes for the Cobbler.
Then, each student was given a paper hat, ears and a cotton ball to create an adorable elf hat!  They had so much fun wearing them while they acted out various scenes to their favorite story.
