What educators are saying

Each day we learned about a new country in the month of December. The students enjoyed learning about the different holidays and how they are celebrated.
This was an excellent addition to our holidays unit. My students were engaged with the texts and images.

Description

Celebrate Christmas in different countries with this adorable unit for kindergarten and first grade students. Tour Mexico and learn about Las Posadas, go to Germany and learn about St. Nicholas, and in Italy the kids love to learn about La Befana. I created beautiful slideshows, mini books, vocabulary pages, reading and writing activities plus so much more to learn about different countries and traditions!

We go to school for three weeks in December. I teach students about each country for one week during December.


Please note: not every custom/tradition/food, etc. is covered for each country. This is an overview for primary students who are learning about Christmas in Mexico, Germany and Italy.
