This is a fun and relevant way to learn about the origins of Christmas and about the historical development of this joyful tradition from ancient days in the Middle East to Europe to the U.S. Students will learn about the history of the Christmas tree, mistletoe, the Christmas wreath, and even the song "Jingle Bells."
Additionally, students will even learn about the Nativity, Saturnalia, Yuletide, and more. It even has some interested facts about George Washington's crossing of the Delaware on Christmas during the American Revolution and the truce between soldiers during World War I when soldiers stopped to greet each other and celebrate before returning to battle.
Please note: one slide at the end of the presentations asks students about their family's Christmas traditions. It also asks about their special traditions if they celebrate a different festival like Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Ramadan, or Chinese New Year.
What makes this lesson even more exciting is the trivia at the end. It is fun and engaging. Students will go away laughing. All the content they learn on the informative and fascinating slides will be tested in the fun trivia game.
Teachers can use this lesson to connect to bigger picture ideas from their history class. But this presentation and trivia doesn't just work for history class.. it works for EVERY class! If it is December and you want to have a fun class with your students, this lesson is for you.
It is also easy to use. All you have to do is click on the linked file, hit "present," then go! You could use each slide as a basis for further discussion and instruction as well.
The students first learn about the history of Christmas, then they play the trivia game. Makes for a productive and enjoyable class for this special holiday. It could also work in a cultural class that introduces different festivals.
