Christmas seems to arrive earlier each year and become more frantic to-boot! I saw this idea a few months back and thought it could be a fun activity with a tutor group or clubs – Especially as my partner pointed out that so many advent calendars appear to have no reference to Christmas apart from the twenty-four little doors.
The idea is a fun and selfless way to celebrate the countdown to Christmas Day, giving us all time to pause and think about the season’s true and original meaning.
I have included twenty-four ideas of my own, however you may have some of your own personal ones to include. Your students may wish to make their own up as a class, in group or individually.
This unit helps students to explore what they and others believe and why. The difference between urban myths and conspiracy theories is discussed in conjunction with primary and secondary sources and their dependability. The students investigate a myth or theory of their own choosing, citing evidence for and against and considering the reliability of the evidence which helps to develop their debating skills. How we decide what we do and don’t believe is examined with the repercussions this can have in our everyday lives. The unit closes with the students inventing their own myth, theory or legend and creating a booklet advertising this to visitors to your town.

This is one of my favourite units with my students as it is predominantly student led which helps build confidence, trust, and responsibility as they work in groups outside of the classroom, independently from the teacher.
The unit walks the students through carrying out an investigation around their school breaking down the different components (Introduction, Aim, Hypothesis, Method, Presenting Data, Discussion, Conclusion and Evaluation), explaining the purpose of each, the expected length and giving some sentence starter suggestions. The unit concludes with the student’s peer assessing each other’s group presentations of their investigations.
This resource includes the student workbooks, a class PowerPoint presentation and a booklet describing different graphs and their uses which can aid the students in their data presentation.
