Holidays Around the World

In first grade we are learning all about holidays and traditions from around the world. To help us learn, we are following the travels of Globe Trot Scott. Each day he sends us a package from a new part of the world that he is visiting. The package contains information about the country, a letter to our class, and a souvenir that shows how people there celebrate a December holiday. We have also been reading books, watching videos, and listening to guest speakers share about their traditions. 

So far Globe Trot Scott has sent us packages from the United States where we've learned about Christmas and Kwanzaa. Today our package was from Italy and we learned about Italian Christmas traditions.

We are excited to see where Globe Trot Scott takes us next!
