In December, we learn about how people celebrate around the World. We "travel" around the World and learn about different cultures, celebrations, and traditions. Students complete a Holidays Around the World passport application and wait anxiously to see if they were "approved" to travel. Students must use correct spelling for their first and last name, their date of birth, as well as their physical description. Thankfully, everyone was approved this year! :)
I always begin December with a literature study of Gingerbread Man stories. Students love comparing and contrasting the characters, setting, plot, and refrain. Using oil pastels, the children created their own Gingerbread people. Check out our display in the first grade hallway!
