Winter Spirit Week Ideas
These winter spirit week ideas are for schools that want a five-day spirit week with a friendly competition between homerooms. The 14 Missions run across five themed days: pajama day, winter hat day, snowman day, flannel day and a door decorating contest. Each homeroom plays as one team on a class phone or tablet, so it works for a single grade or a whole school.
