Christmas Around the World

We are doing something a little different in Literacy this week. The kids are very excited to be learning about how people celebrate the holidays around the world. Students will be using informational texts each day to learn about another country's holiday traditions. Students each have a suitcase, plane ticket, and passport. Daily students board the plane and travel to a new destination. Once we land we get off the plane and either complete a task or eat traditional food to celebrate that tradition. Ask your child about what they learn on their daily trips. Today they started it and we had a lot of fun! Pictures will be coming soon!

Monday- Mexico
Tuesday- Israel
Wednesday- France
Thursday- Africa
Friday- United States of America
