There are better
Christmas lessons on waygook.org, but since my lesson happen to fall on the last week of classes, right before everybody left for the winter break, I just made a lesson around watching Christmas videos.
Christmas:
- Native Speaker introduces the concept of Christmas and brainstorms Christmas culture. 5 minutes.
- Native Speaker demonstrates North American Christmas culture with Christmas television show. 20 minutes.
- Native Speaker demonstrates European Christmas culture with Christmas television show. 20 minutes.
Notes:
- This was the last lesson of the term and nobody wanted to do any work.
- The girls like Mr. Bean. The boys like South Park. I showed them both.
- I found all of the Christmas South Park videos but only used Mr. Hankey The Christmas Poo since it seemed the most educational about Christmas (and it introduces the concept of the seasonal talking dung character). The rest are here for future reference.
