A comprehensive plan and a printable student worksheet with sequencing, true/false, sketching, vocabulary, and creative writing exercises are included in the box. After listening to the music multiple times, students work on interesting assignments that assess their comprehension and help them develop their skills. This lesson is very interactive, simple to teach, and ideal for learning over the holidays. It promotes inclusive classroom principles, language practice, and SEL. It can be used by teachers as part of a Christmas unit or for an entire class.
