Winter Holiday Project

1) First you will be assigned to a team and then each team will be given a country to research and learn about their winter holiday celebration. Each team will be given a country (Team A, B etc). See below the country you have been assigned.

2) Begin "traveling" to discover about your holiday. Below there are links to websites that will help you with your research on your holiday/country. The first website consist of flags of different countries. Begin by clicking on the flag that matches the holiday your team was assigned to find out what information you need to gather in your travels to different countries.

3) While you are researching answer the questions that are located on the worksheet below.

4) After you have completed all of the questions begin preparing your powerpoint presentation for your team.

 5) Your team will then present your winter holiday to the class.
