Three pages after the cover. Pages 1 and 2 make an 8-page mini-book with a cover and a page each for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Lunar New Year, Diwali and Las Posadas, plus a My Holiday draw-and-write page. Page 3 asks children to draw a line from each holiday to its symbol, such as menorah, kinara, diya and red envelope, then color the symbols. The answer key shows every line drawn.
Can I use the Winter Holidays Around the World Mini-Book at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Kindergarten to 2nd 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 Kindergarten to 2nd Grade winter holidays resources are there?
⌄
1 printable resource, 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 winter holidays resources for?
⌄
These are written for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade students, roughly ages 5-8. 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 winter holidays 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 Kindergarten to 2nd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
