Lessons & Activities (PreK-8)
Holidays is a topic occupying the thoughts of children
and teachers during much of the year, but especially during
November and December. This theme can provide a wonderful opportunity
to introduce students to customs and cultures that may be unfamiliar
to them and to help them recognize festivals as communal celebrations
of culture. All of the activities in this unit can be considered as
social studies activities, but many incorporate other curricular areas
as well.
