The PowerPoint includes the following information:
- Date
- The purpose of Christmas
- History of Christmas
- How is Christmas celebrated
- Jamaican Christmas (change to your home country)
At the end of the powerpoint, I placed students in groups of 4 or 5.
Each group shared one thing about Christmas in Japan. I gave them about 5 minutes to prepare.
For example: Foods, Activities, Places to visit
Write the target language on the board "In Japan, we ________________ for Christmas."
Some ideas they shared were: In Japan, we eat Kentucky for Christmas. In Japan we look at illuminations for Christmas.
Crossword Puzzle: based on what was learned in the PowerPoint.

You will have to create your own as information about Jamaica is included.
Write a Christmas card
At the back of the worksheet is a guide to help students write a Christmas card to their friend/family member.
I have attached the template I used for the Christmas Cards.
I allowed them to use colored pens and draw on it to make it more personalized.
Hey! Love the lesson outline and activity idea! Just noticed you didn't attach the powerpoint though.
Hello! Hopefully you're able to see it now.
Perfect! Thank you :D
Hi there. This looks very interesting but I can't access the powerpoint file as it's very big. Can you shrink the file to make it possible to open it please? I often use this site to shrink or convert files: https://smallpdf.com/compress-pdf. Thank you for taking the time to make this presentation.
