Christmas Around the World (K-2)
Christmas Around the World (K-2)
This Christmas Around the World bundle, PDF and Google Slides, is perfect for distance learning, in the classroom, and with hybrid learning. The digital component is a brand new resource, not the PDF converted to Google Slides. You will get the informational texts digitally with all new digital jigsaw puzzles, digital match games, digital word searches, and more! Games can be played online, on the slides, or even printed. I have included easy to follow directions for the crafts. Families will be able to complete them at home with minimal supplies and no assistance is needed from you.
**Try it, before you buy it. Download Christmas in Germany for free!
I added a special bonus that you will only get by purchasing this bundle, the Christmas Story! You cannot purchase this resource. It is only available to those that purchase this bundle.
The great digital resources are also only available by purchasing the bundle. At this time, I am not adding them to the individual sets. If you recently (within the last year) purchased an individual resource and love it, upgrade to the bundle. You will get the digital components and TpT will issue a refund for the individual product after you purchase the bundle.
Yes, the digital update can be downloaded as PowerPoint files!

You can pick and choose which countries to visit and which activities to do for each day.

In the PDF, each country/holiday has
a cover
an informational text
an interactive notebook page
a craft
and a coloring page!
There is also a countdown to Christmas page, a world map, and a passport for your students to collect stamps from the countries they visit.
Just added!!
Here is what is included in the digital update.
Each country/holiday has...
a cover
an informational text
a jigsaw puzzle
a match game
a cool craft
a coloring page
Select the countries and activities that you want to complete with your students and print the pages.
Don’t worry if you have never used interactive notebooks before. This is the perfect way to stick your toe in the water. All cutting and folding instructions are included with pictures. Just project the image so the students can use them as a guide. All interactive notebook pages have consistent cutting and folding lines. Solid lines mean cut and dotted lines mean fold. Your students will appreciate the consistency. This means fewer instruction given from you. Both blank and programmed pieces are included. The programmed ones are great for differentiation and providing support to students that need it.
