The holidays are coming fast!
As teachers, we want to have fun with our students during this very special time of year, yet we want to respect their individual beliefs and, of course, continue the important learning!
There are a whole lot of holidays celebrated in the winter! Here are ten of them:
Diwali
Hanukkah
St. Lucia Day
Las Posadas
Winter Solstice
Christmas
Boxing Day
Kwanzaa
New Year's Eve
Chinese New Year
I like to discuss each holiday and its meaning. Better yet, they can read about these holidays!
This resource provides a kid-friendly explanation of each of the above 10 holidays. It is available in color or black and white for easier printing.
Plus, after they learn about the holidays, they can perform the included readers' theater! What a great way to practice important reading and speaking skills, learn about winter holidays, and have some fun!
Plus, there's a song that can be used as a "grand finale!"
All these can be found in this one resource: Christmas and Holidays Around the World: Non-fiction Text AND Reader's Theater.
You can also grab this Winter Holidays Readers Theater for FREE by signing up for my weekly newsletter HERE!
