Use holidays and times of celebration to hook your students interest and teach them research skills, literary terms and writing techniques! This book features 13 mainstream holidays, with each one anchored by a popular or award-winning children's book. Each of the 24 stand-alone lessons includes a story synopsis, time requirement, objective, material list and activity instructions. The lessons can be taught in a 25-35 minute time frame and include additional reading suggestions. Students do not need to have read the books to successfully complete and enjoy these magical lessons.
