FAQ
How do I use the Saint Nicholas Flap Book?
⌄
Read about Saint Nicholas first, or use the fact poster. Children glue the flaps, lift each one and write what they know, using the hint words.
What is the Saint Nicholas Flap Book?
⌄
Two pages. Page 1 has 3 flaps to cut and fold. Page 2 is the base page with 3 gray strips to glue them on. Under each flap are a question, hint words and lines to write: where and when Nicholas lived and his job (Myra, Turkey, 300s, bishop), what the legend says he did for a poor family (three sisters, gold, window, secret) and what children set out on December 5 (shoes, boots, oranges, nuts, chocolate).
Can I use the Saint Nicholas Flap Book at home and in the classroom?
⌄
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.
How many 2nd Grade to 5th Grade Saint Nicholas Day resources are there?
⌄
2 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 16 Saint Nicholas Day resources in all, from Preschool to 5th Grade, gathered on our Saint Nicholas Day activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Saint Nicholas Day resources for?
⌄
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.
Can I use these Saint Nicholas Day 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 2nd Grade to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
