Classroom Considerations
- If paper use is an issue, consider assigning groups a country to research, and ask them prepare a travelogue, complete with traditions, food, and crafts
- Some of the activities assume that the child celebrates Christmas; therefore, consider expanding the final journal activities to include any holiday celebrated at home
Pros
- Kids are asked to locate each country studied on a world map
- The book list includes recommendations and cautions
Cons
- Requires at least 30 sheets of paper per traveler
- Because not all kids celebrate Christmas, consider editing the "Favorite Christmas Memory" to "Favorite Holiday Memory"
