On Monday, we are starting our Christmas Around the World unit in Social Studies. For the next three and a half weeks, we will be “traveling” all over the world leaning about how different countries celebrate the holidays. We will be getting passports and suitcases that the children will be taking with them throughout the unit. Each day, students will get their plane ticket punched as they board the plane to travel to the ”country of the day”. We will also be sampling foods from different countries, playing games from different countries, and doing lots of different crafts. Watch for a note to come home soon about this special day. :) I'm really looking forward to it.
