I assume that in this country and at their ages there will be a basic knowledge of “American” holidays. Being that the cultural basis for each child is so divers there may be some issues in understanding the holidays not celebrated in each students home S- State Objectives-The objectives for this lesson is that each 4th grade student will name a specific detail or characteristic of each holiday and which culture is represented by using a calendar marked with each holiday and filling in the date with the major identifying factors, using pictures representing each holiday on a velcro board listing holidays, watching video of holiday celebrations, pairing up with a member of the class from a different culture and discussing personal family holiday traditions with 90% accuracy by the end of the week. S- Select Methods, Media and Materials - The lesson will be taught with video’s depicting celebration of the various holidays, pictures of notable items or practices and reading material detailing and exploring each holiday, Calendars and velcro cards will be used, also personal exploration and research and discussion. A “show and tell” for each student to have the opportunity to share a family holiday celebration by creating a class youtube video that will be shared on the class wiki. Each child will be given time to create a voki that will give a traditional holiday greeting, song, or reading representing their cultures. U-Utilize Media and Materials - Video’s will be prescreened and edited for time and accuracy, the viewing system set up and tested. Photos and reading materials will also be reviewed for accuracy. Also each “show and tell youtube video” presentation will be made. Voki’s will be added to the class Wiki.
