I vividly remember as a child trying to catch Santa Claus.  My sister and I rigged a contraption that would capture his picture as he came down the chimney.  The contraption was well thought out and all set for his big arrival.  We could not wait to see him!  When Christmas morning arrived we were amazed (but a little bit sad) by the results.  We did capture him, but we only capture his BOOTS coming down the chimney.  The camera triggered too early – right when he touched the string it snapped the photo and so we only got his big black boots.

Today, though, we want to catch an Elf and I am guessing you know someone special who may have some ideas on how to catch an elf!  To get this fun writing prompt, enter your name/email into the blue form below.  You will be added to our email list where you will find out about lots of fun activities!  If you have any trouble with your free download, please email me at [email protected] and I will help you!

Madreen Karle is a master first grade reading teacher with over 30 years of classroom experience. She taught reading in a special needs and English as a Second Language classroom. After retiring she wrote a reading program to help others learn how to teach reading. She is a trusted educator and author of 5 books to help teach children to read and write. In addition to her books, she is a mentor for 3 websites that give reading teacher tips (Mrs. Karle’s Sight and Sound ReadingMrs. Karle’s Reading Patch, and Mrs. Karle’s Handwriting Patch). Through her teaching she learned that confidence was the key to learning to read. A child who is not confident at reading does not like to read and struggles to read. Mrs. Karle created “sunshine moments” to help teach children how to grow their confidence and learn to read.
Meeghan Karle Mousaw (Madreen’s daughter) has her Master’s in Special Education. She has 8 years experience teaching children to read online. In addition, she developed a curriculum to teach children handwriting called The Handwriting Patch. With the Handwriting Patch learning is fun because children learn to draw and learn handwriting at the same time. In 2019 The Handwriting Patch curriculum became an amazon best seller the first year it was released, helping thousands of kids learn handwriting with a unique, fun method. She is mom to 6 kids, each with differently learning abilities and struggles.
The Reading Patch was established by the creators of Mrs. Karle’s Sight and Sound Reading. Together they have been featured on the NBC media outlets and Parents Magazine online. Over the last 8 years in their online platform, Madreen and Meeghan have worked tirelessly with teachers, homeschoolers and parents looking to help children learn to read to become a trusted authority in teaching children to read and advocating early literacy skills. They often partner with other educational experts to deliver the most current information to the Reading Patch community.
