Need another activity to round out your holiday celebration? Toss in some holiday-themed flash cards. Choose from several of the most popular holidays, each with its own set of color flash cards. Trade, mix-and-match, or play a memory game with them. The kids are sure to enjoy while they learn their seasonal vocabulary. Then throw the words into a story. The best stories can get written or shared verbally. Use these as a springboard for a whole lesson!

May Day is another holiday we don’t hear much about here in the U.S.A., but in other countries, especially Europe, there is a long tradition behind the holiday. Explore the cultural roots, the political meanings, and the fun aspects of the festival as well. As I’ve been saying often lately, these holidays are a teaching tool for social studies and cultural awareness. Don’t forget there are a lot of weird or unknown little holidays out there, too. Have students look up calendars of them or design their own holiday! Or, stick to some ready-made goodies from have fun teaching.

It’s nice to hit all the holidays and remind kids that there is a reason behind some of these days off they get during the year. Celebrate our country’s history, African-American history, civil rights, and our government with MLK Jr. Day. Do a short social studies lesson, talk about what it means to have equal rights, and then wrap up with some great freebies from have fun teaching!
