About This Product

A Holiday Play: An American Christmas

A Holiday Play: An American Christmas is an engaging educational resource. It's perfect for 3rd to 5th graders but can be flexible for additional grade levels based on your student's abilities and interests in and out of school settings. There are 10 unique roles.

The play revolves around the Johnson family celebrating Christmas Eve on December 24th, providing a platform for stimulating discussions about various family traditions and holiday celebrations throughout the year.

Benefits:

  • Balanced literacy support: fosters vocabulary development and enhances reading comprehension.

  • Choral reading opportunity: bolsters fluency skills while aiding character development exploration in literature.

  • Creative expression: nurtures an understanding of story elements and creative enactment.

  • Critical thinking skill enrichment: encourages preperformance research activities, thereby instilling valuable critical thinking skills among young students.

This script offers a fun-filled activity that aligns with key Common Core Standards (CCSS) pertaining to drama literature. The related standard CCSS ELA-LITERACY.RL.3-5-10, regarding the student's ability to read complex dramas by the end of the year, adds curriculum relevancy!

The importance of incorporating plays into learning modules should not be overlooked. I'm sure your students will agree!

The resource includes 12 pages: the script, Teacher's Guide, and activities for the students.
