World Culture Day: German Cuckoo Clock

At the end of the school year, you may be thinking about the last few celebrations that you will squeeze in with your students. There are many holidays that accompany the spring and summer seasons. One of these holidays is World Culture Day. This is a United Nations sanctioned international holiday. This holiday is a time to celebrate the richness of cultures all around the world and to promote diversity and dialogue. Our young learners can absolutely learn about and celebrate this holiday. The best way to allow them to celebrate is through engaging resources.

This resource is a German Cuckoo Clock. It is a fun activity that will allow students to assemble their own cuckoo clock. Prior to the activity, you can teach students about this culture, who invented the clock and when, why it was important to them and more. You could also find pictures and videos of real German cuckoo clocks to show students.

Kindergarten – 2nd grade students will love creating their own clocks.

It is a 1-page printable that comes with explicit directions for assembly.

This printable comes in 3 formats.

I hope you enjoy!
