Six Facts About St. Lucia Day Poster

Display it during December or project it to start a lesson. Ask children which fact surprised them, or use it to check answers on other St. Lucia Day pages.

One poster page with 6 numbered fact boxes: St. Lucia Day is on December 13; it honors Lucia, who lived in Syracuse on the island of Sicily about 1,700 years ago; it is best known in Sweden and also kept in Norway, Finland and Denmark; a girl dressed as Lucia leads a procession of children in white; families eat lussekatter; and the name Lucia comes from lux, the Latin word for light.

Yes. We made it for 2nd Grade to 5th 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.

2 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 30 St. Lucia Day resources in all, from Preschool to 5th Grade, gathered on our St. Lucia Day activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade students, roughly ages 7-11. 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.

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 2nd Grade to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
