ACTIVITY
♦ Place the 16 fact cards on Christmas in the U.S.A. around the classroom. Students can work individually, in pairs, or in small groups to find the answers to all 16 questions on their response sheets. They must read the fact card to find the answer for each corresponding fact question on their response sheets.
♦ Early finishers who complete the Scavenger Hunt can design their posters and fill-in sections of the flipbook. Wrap-up the activity by getting students together and asking them to share the facts they found the most interesting. They may refer to their recording sheets, posters and flipbook.
