Grab your passports and take a trip to learn about

Grab your passports and take a trip to learn about 6 different holidays. This bundle includes Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Las Posadas, Diwali, & The New Year. Students will focus on comparing similarities and differences in the holidays. A passport is also included with directions on how to complete it, and options to eliminate a specific holiday if you choose not to do them all. There is a mini craft or two for each holiday to put in your suitcase as you travel to each holiday. My students love reading the mini books included, learning about the symbols and traditions, and comparing and contrasting. #christmasactivities #hanukkah #lasposadas #diwali #newyears2025 #kwanzaa #holidaypassports #firstgraderoars #tpt
