Description
With Christmas around the world, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and more winter holidays around the corner, use these graphic organizers to make note-taking and comparing and contrasting a breeze!
This resource includes two graphic organizers: One for nonfiction note-taking, and a Venn Diagram for comparing and contrasting world holidays.
Students use these clear headings to guide their research:
- Where is this holiday celebrated?
- When is this holiday celebrated?
- Special foods:
- Special decorations:
- Special activities:
With so many fall holidays coming up -- Diwali, Halloween, Day of the Dead, Diwali, Thanksgiving, and more -- you can use these graphic organizers for any and all holidays! Consistently using this same organizer for note-taking builds familiarity and understanding -- and helps students more easily pinpoint similarities and differences when it's time to compare and contrast.
After researching multiple holidays, the included Venn Diagram will help your students visualize and organize their similarities and differences. (Available in both lined and blank formats).
