About This Product
Christmas is not the same in every single country. Traditions are different and the languages are different.
This is why I created these beautiful coloring pages. Not only did I include the colored versions of the pictures so students could copy and practice color recognition, but I added Christmas-related Spanish words to add interest to the pages and to introduce children to new vocabulary words in the English as well as Spanish language.
These fun coloring pages contain drawings with thick outlines to make coloring within the lines much easier even for the youngest children. Of course, children do not need to be able to read to complete the coloring.
This a straightforward project with just coloring pages with text on each page. All ages can benefit from participating in the project. However, pre-k, kindergarten, first, second, third, and fourth graders will be the main audience.
Print these for your students and place them on a bulletin board for Christmas and/or other multicultural events such as Cinco de Mayo.
Pictures include:
Boy with 5-Pointed Star
Joseph and Mary
Christmas Tree Bulb Painted with Mexico Country Symbol
Paper Lantern
The Nativity Scene
Christmas Shoes Filled with Candy
Mexican Christmas Punch
3 Wise Men or 3 Kings
3 Kings Bread
Legend of the Poinsettia
Confetti
12 pages, including cover page, pdf downloadable file.
Students will practice reading, color recognition, and more. Teachers can have students copy the words on their own sheets of paper and they can be used for a vocabulary or spelling test. You can have contests for students to practice their coloring skills, with prizes for the best completed coloring sheet.
These coloring pages are a perfect way to add cultural relevance to your Christmas celebration and to help your students become more familiar with some of the traditions of Mexico during the holiday season.
