The Christmas Nativity Story: Story Retell Activity; Reading Center Activity; Bible story activity

If you’re a teacher or homeschooling parent looking for an activity in order to retell The Nativity Story, then my reading center activity is perfect for checking learner’s understanding of the key events, names and places that The Christmas Story tells of. The low prep activity has been designed to support the retell of The Christmas Story set to rhyme, which is available in my 123mispoppins stores, however, it would also be compatible with other versions of the Christmas Story.

There are 16 question cards with multiple choice answers that check the understanding of children’s ability to answer retrieval questions about the important Christian event. Youngsters can use mini pegs to clip the correct answer, write each answer in an answer sheet template provided or use them to test peers during whole class discussion.

There are also 16 answer cards included in the PDF download, which will encourage learners to take responsibility for checking their own work or developing their skills in peer assessment. It’s a great way to move the ownership to children and free up teacher time by allowing them to self and peer assess.

The resource will accompany other resources of this version of The Christmas Story available in my store, such as the powerpoint presentation of the story and a printable PDF book version of the story.

Make learning of The Nativity fun and engaging by using these resources with K-2nd Grade learners and watch how they begin to name key characters and events with a greater degree of confidence and interest. Download your today and be prepared.
