Holidays of the Year
« on: May 03, 2010, 10:03:43 AM »
Here is a powerpoint showing major holidays of the year.  I am using this for a speaking class with my grade 6 kids.  We are then going to play a jeopardy game afterwords as review.

Holiday Powerpoint
« Reply #3 on: June 24, 2011, 02:23:08 PM »
This one has it all:  New Years Eve, New Year's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Easter, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and even some of those random Monday holidays (President's Day, Martin Luther King Day, Labor Day and Memorial Day)

It should work for many different levels. 

Hope someone finds it useful!

Here's a short PowerPoint about some holidays in America that my co-teacher had me make - it shows some similarities and differences between a couple in Korea vs some in the US. I decided not to include holidays with any sort of religious association since I didn't want to gloss over that part but also not have to launch into too much detail as far as that was concerned.

This one is for Thanksgiving. I'm doing this with my 4th grade after school class this week.

After teaching the phrases below, we're going to write thank you notes. They can address it to whoever they want, but they must use the phrase, "Thank you for _______." I did this last year and the kids got into it and almost all of them wrote multiple notes. Attached is also a turkey coloring worksheet. Happy Thanksgiving!

English    Korean
helping so much     도와 주셔서
sharing     같이 써 주셔서
lending me things     물건을 빌려주셔서
always using English     영어를 사용하여 주셔서
making me laugh    웃게해 주셔서
being nice    신경써 주셔서
being friendly    친근하게 해 주셔서
taking care of me    돌봐 주셔서
teaching me    가르쳐 줘서
loving me    날 사랑해 주셔서
giving me candy     사탕을 주셔서
being my friend    친구해 주셔서

Here are the "thank you ____" phrases that you can print out and give to each student. I'm also using this Thanksgiving PPT I found somewhere last year and I slightly modified. Thanks to whoever made it!  :)

Students learn about various holidays and are tested to see if they know the correct date for the holiday being described.

I know it has passed, but here is the slide I used for St. Patrick's Day. My students really liked learning about this because previous teachers have not explained it to them. So even my co-teacher didn't know anything about the holiday. I compiled material from the slides already posted, and then added some material of m own. I hope you like it.

As NT's we are responsible for teaching our culture too. And I think every holiday is worth mentioning (religious or not.) Students should know that they don't have to believe in the religion in order to celebrate the holiday. Many atheists celebrate Christmas. Everyone can celebrate spring and new life at Easter. You don't have to get all preachy, and you don't have to be afraid of talking about religion. Religion is a huge part of modern culture. And that's okay!

So anyway... I will post my other holiday lesson plans as they come up. I teach 4th, 5th and 6th grade. I did find this a little difficult to explain to my students, but co-teacher was more than happy to translate what they didn't understand. So feel free to simplify things if you feel you need to.
