Celebrating Christmas Traditions Around the World with Your Students
In this festive episode of Teacher Show Me the World, I dive into seven fun and engaging ways to teach your students about Christmas traditions from around the world. Whether you're gearing up for a teacher-led student trip abroad or just want to bring global holiday cheer into your classroom, I share practical resources to get your students excited about the season. From creating worksheets that highlight holiday customs to taking virtual tours of Christmas villages, your students will love discovering how Christmas is celebrated in countries like Germany, Italy, and Finland.
I also suggest hands-on activities like making cultural Christmas ornaments, trying out holiday recipes from different countries, and inviting guest speakers to share unique traditions. These ideas not only help students understand and appreciate global customs but also encourage them to compare and contrast U.S. holiday traditions with those from around the world. Tune in for creative ways to prepare your students for a global holiday adventure and inspire them to explore the world this Christmas season!
Be sure to read my most recent blog post that highlights these ideas and includes links to various enrichment opportunities to share with your students.
