Celebrate Christmas like the United Kingdom in your classroom this year! Students learn to work cooperatively in small groups or on their own as they explore Christmas in the UK. One of the unique celebrations in the Christmas season is Boxing Day!
Students will read about Christmas in the UK and do some hands-on learning by creating a gift for Boxing Day out of construction paper. Students also practice gratitude as they deliver their gift to another person at school and explain the meaning of the holiday.
The STEM Process:
Students plan, design, and execute their own ideas. After they have completed their activity, there is time for reflection on what worked and what didn't.
