Tutor Time - Worldwide Events – December 2018

Aimed at primary and secondary teachers. You will find this a quick solution to create talking points and fun interaction through the month with very little effort. I use it as a once a week tutor time activity to stimulate discussion and raise awareness.

This set of resources highlight some of the international days celebrated around the world during December 2018. This includes links to websites, ideas for whole school participation and individual activities for each of the days highlighted in the PowerPoint notes.

Events covered:

• 1st World AIDS Day (Activity: AIDS Awareness Quiz – This will only be appropriate for older children, However you can gain some discussion points from the notes for each answer.)
• 11th International Mountain Day (Activity: Famous Mountains Word Search)
• 25th Christmas Day (Activity: Christmas Decoration Ideas)
• 26th Boxing Day (Activity: A Year In Sport Quiz – At the time of writing it is looking likely that Lewis Hamilton will win the F1 Championship for a 5th time this year so the answers are ‘ 2, 3 or more’. Please change depending on the result [to ‘2,3,4’ or ‘3,4,5’]. Also, the final question asks about the 2017 sports personality winner, it is possible you do this quiz before it is announced.)
• 31st Hogmanay (Activity: ‘Look What I Did’ Poster – Use the template or create your own)

You can print out the ‘Events’ PowerPoint to create a display for your classroom. Feel free to modify the resources as required for your school.

If you find the resource useful, please leave a review so that others can find it.

All the best,
