American Girl Tea Time - Holiday Edition

Class
Melissa Harrison
Average rating:4.8Number of reviews:(116)
In this class, students will have tea (or hot cocoa) while learning about the holiday books and stories from the historical American Girl collection. We will discuss different holiday traditions and how they compare to those in the books.

Class experience

Students will learn about different holiday traditions from the perspective of American Girl dolls.
While it will not be directly taught in this class, there are sensitive topics within some of the American Girl books, including race, discrimination, stereotypes, slavery, controversial representations, violence, and war. Topics will be handled sensitively if they are brought up and students will be given ample space to share their thoughts and feelings around these topics. As the teacher, I will provide historical context for their questions if they arise on a sensitive topic.  

Holiday traditions that the American Girl dolls celebrate will only be discussed as they relate to the books and not to promote any specific religion.  I will not be sharing my personal religious beliefs and will not engage the students in a discussion of their religious beliefs but only specific traditions and how they relate to the dolls.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
This class will be based on stories and traditions from:
Kirsten's Surprise by Janet Shaw
Molly's Surprise by Valerie Tripp
Samantha's Surprise by Maxine Schur
Felicity's Surprise by Valerie Tripp
Josefina's Surprise by Valerie Tripp
Growing Up With Aloha by Kirby Larson
Addy's Surprise by Connie Porter
