What is the Las Posadas Mini Book?

Eight pages explain that Las Posadas is a tradition from Mexico from December 16 to 24, children dress as Mary, Joseph, angels and shepherds, farolitos and luminarias light the way, the group sings to ask for posada, the piñata has seven points, families share tamales, buñuelos, ponche and an aguinaldo, and the last night is Nochebuena.
Can I use the Las Posadas Mini Book at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 1st Grade to 3rd Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many 1st Grade to 3rd Grade Las Posadas resources are there?
⌄
1 printable resource, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Las Posadas resources for?
⌄
These are written for 1st Grade to 3rd Grade students, roughly ages 6-9. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Las Posadas resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 1st Grade to 3rd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
