Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
Merry Christmas and welcome to my class on the history of Christmas. 
In this one-time class, learners will be taught a brief history of where Christmas originated from.
The lesson will be constructed into fun PowerPoint slides, in which students can take turns reading and asking questions.  Students will be asked questions individually and as a group allowing a few minutes for each student to respond and share their opinion. We can openly discuss what we already know about Christmas and students can ask me any questions that they may want to ask. 
I will cover the origins of Christmas, and why we all celebrate Christmas with a Christmas tree. 
I am a fun enthusiastic teacher who loves to make my lessons enjoyable and all I ask is that you respect everyone in the class. 
Learners needn't have any previous knowledge or understanding of the subject. 

What are you waiting for sign up now and I look forward to seeing you in our interactive classroom.

Learning Goals

Students will improve their knowledge of Father Christmas, his origins, and how he has evolved into a global hero among children.

My sources are taken from the English Heritage site. I will use my own school curriculum to extract information currently being taught about Christmas, we use britannica.com and a history website called history.com. The lesson will be constructed into PowerPoint slides.
