Description: Are you looking for interesting and engaging activities that will keep your students engaged and learning before the Christmas holiday and will also teach them about different Christmas traditions around the world? If so, this set of cards can help. Each set has 37 cards. While completing Hunt #1 students will learn why spiders are a symbol of good luck in the Ukraine, the similarities and differences between the Italian Belfana and Santa, what activity Swedish families participate in at 3:00 p.m. on Christmas Eve, and more. Then, in Hunt #2 students will learn what happens on the Night of the Radishes in Mexico, why Norwegians hide their mops and brooms at Christmas, what the citizens of the Marshall Islands do on Christmas Day, and more. To complete the hunts, students are presented with multiple-choice questions. Then they read passages where the information to answer the questions can be found. They receive instant feedback on whether or not they chose the correct answer. The final card in the hunt challenges students to write 3 interesting things they learned about Christmas traditions around the world.
