We all know we want to stay out from under the mistletoe, but how many of us know how this tradition started? In this activity, students will research how that and many other Christmas traditions started.
Students will have a fun way to practice writing dialogue in this lesson. They will create a comic strip based on two elves who are working in the toy factory.
In this lesson, students will practice observing and writing details as they study about the ways different countries depict Santa.
The student will be able to create a timeline showing when major changes and additions have happened in our Christmas traditions.
Students are not often aware how Christmas is celebrated differently around the world. This project will allow students to study in-depth how other countries and cultures celebrate Christmas.
