How about another patriotic holiday? This one has social studies written all over it. I can imagine some great creative activities to go along with it. Grab some for free from have fun teaching, and then have students design their own flags for our country! Talk about the meaning of the stars, the stripes, and the red, white, and blue. Then have them figure out the meanings for their own flag designs. Hey, I wasn’t the only one who made up my own country with its own currency and flag when I was a kid, was I?

As teachers and parents of young students, let’s all take a moment to remember our fathers who are involved in educating young minds. Along with mothers, they form a cornerstone of our school-home connection. And, I don’t think dads like much more than getting nice colored pictures or activities handed to them by their little sons or daughters. Remember one of the most important family members we all have with some activities honoring fathers.

Easter can be a fun holiday, whether you use the religious version (in parochial schools or homeschool settings most likely) or the commercialized version. I drag out the christmas tree and hang tons of plastic easter eggs on it, each with special quiz questions or vocabulary words for the week in them. You can do all sorts of cool stuff like that. For more ideas, try looking at have fun teaching’s easter section.

Hey, it’s Arbor Day’s big brother, or at least more popular sister. Earth Day makes for good outside activities, environmental science, and just general fun. Yeah, it might seem sort of Anti-Earth to print a bunch of worksheets, but why not print one for the document camera? Or have students look at the one you project onto the SMARTBoard? At any rate, after you’ve sweat a bit cleaning up your school’s sidewalks, pulling weeds, picking up trash and all, cool off and try one of these activities

Cinco de Mayo (The 5th of May), is rapidly becoming to America what St. Patrick’s Day is. Everyone can be a bit Spanish for a day, just like they get a bit green and Irish on St. Patty’s. Why not have a food festival, a cultural heritage day, a family tree making contest, or some sort of cultural festival to go with that day in May? May is always a bit hard to muster up enthusiasm, being at the end of the year and all, so make it fun for students AND you with some fun stuff from Have Fun Teaching!

Songs are a great way to teach new vocabulary, rhythm, and other concepts. Have students make up their own holiday or winter songs with specific word lists, or have them make up silly season rhymes to show off their word power. Thankfully, have fun teaching already has a few of these sorts of things made up for you. Get into that holiday spirit, put on that ugly sweater in the back of your closet, and get to it!

Ho HO HO! I can almost smell the plastic Christmas trees now! I know we all have a little kid somewhere hidden inside, and our students are little kids. Therefore, most of us love Christmas. It doesn’t matter if it’s the presents and parties or the lights and trees. We all get a little giddy and happier around that season, so why not celebrate a bit and give your students some fun morning work? Do some Christmas activities, like coloring contests (which can be religion and culture friendly as needed), or word scrambles, or essays about what winter and the holidays mean to each person?

This is another great, yet often unrecognized holiday! Spin off a whole unit on Asia, China, Holidays, or foreign cultures with chinese new year! Usually falling in January or February, it marks the beginning of the lunar new year. That’s a great science concept, too, learning about different methods of reckoning time and the start of years. Pull up some coloring sheets for a project cover, or some activities from have fun teaching. Have them learn how the twelve year cycle got their animal names, and the legends behind them. Look for math patterns in the years of their specific animals! The possibilities are endless.
