Ring in the holiday season with The Best Christmas Pageant Ever by Barbara Robinson. A teacher's guide to each chapter, crossword puzzles, quote matching, and creative writing prompts are just a few of the language arts activities included in this resource. Science projects, such as an experiment to make your own fire extinguisher, and social studies assignments about other religious holidays, are a great way to link the story across several different disciplines.
