Which Present Do You Want?

Santa gives out some presents to the students! Let them choose a colored present and reveal what's inside.

For elementary school students.

This is just a short and silly powerpoint that kills the last few minutes of a Christmas-themed lesson, but the students almost always go crazy about it. There are 2 to 3 choices of presents, ask the students which present they want, choose a student and have them answer in simple English like, "Yellow present, please." Click the present to open it and reveal their prize! There are some exciting things to get and some joke prizes as well, so the students will be laughing when their friend only gets a potato when someone else got an iPhone.

Feel free to change anything however you like!

*Update: Cropped down the size of presents in the last two slides so you hopefully won't open the wrong one by accident.

      "Just did this with my 3rd grade elementary students and had a girl burst into tears when she chose the poop emoji :("

      Not sure how you used it but I've had something similar happen to me before with a different activity! I've found it best to avoid letting students choose on their own in front of everyone, and rather have them do it by raising their hands to vote for which present they'd like, or doing a four courners type of activity with it. Then there's a kind of shared joy / shared pain dynamic to it haha
