Student: Aww, how sad. Look at Mrs. S's pathetic tree.
Me: It's the Charlie Brown tree.
Student 2: But it only has 1 ornament.
Student 3: And there's no presents!
Student 1: Don't worry Ms. S, we'll fix it for you.



(My "presents" include my mouse, an origami box, and a paper crane. I have a star made out of a post it note, and my ornament was wrapped up in tissues and hidden in the pencil bucket. The tape dispenser was decorated and attached to the tree)

The best part is it's just like the Charlie Brown movie--which I'm pretty sure none of them have ever seen :)
