Holiday's Around the World!

Help me give my students the experience of different winter holiday's around the world!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Basel's classroom raised $360

This project is fully funded

My Project

All children love the holidays! I want to share with our students a trip around the world this winter season to explore how other countries celebrate winter holidays.

We want to provide each child with a passport and stamps to recall all the different places we have visited and learned about their holiday season.

The ornaments help to assist with recall about what special things happen in each country. We will add these ornaments to a tree in our room to encourage conversations.

We will use the various books to read about the holidays and expand our learning by providing visuals and interactive activities.
