Christmas Around the World

Throughout the month of the December, our class completed a social studies unit over Christmas around the world. Each day we studied the Christmas customs and traditions of one country. At the end of our unit, we asked for parent volunteers to sit up stations, or "countries". The students each got a suitcase and passport, and took a trip around the world!! Needless to say, the students had a blast!! Thanks so much for everyone who was able to make our day so special!! <3
Mr. RJ checks passports and welcomes the students to Japan.

Even Ms. Nikkia's mommy came to celebrate Christmas around the world! The students made reindeer food, because the U.S. is the only country who believes that santas sleigh is pulled by reindeer! Who would've thought?
