Prep for this activity DOES INCLUDE A TINY BIT OF YOUR TIME:

French Christmas Activity Pack for the classroom

This resources comprises a variety of fun and exciting Halloween activities that can help to support a Science of Reading based program in your French classroom. My students squealed with delight this week as I started to unveil the Christmas themed learning centres to go along with my phonics programming. Students knew that as soon as we were done with explicit instruction ‘Let the games begin’ and begin they did.

Students remained on task, dedicated to their own activity, and were cooperating and collaborating with their partners while speaking and learning French decoding, Christmas vocabulary, and having a ton of fun!

Activities include:

1. Roll, read, cover: students roll the die, count the numbers, read down the row, and place a counter on the bottom word. The students who finishes the row gets a point

2. Word Hunt: find the words hidden in the picture. Fun Christmas themed images with hidden sounds and words. Students use a magnifying glass to find the words

3. Close sentences: fill in the blanks using the Christmas words

4. Highlighter activity pages: copy and place pages into clear folders and watch students as they hunt for the sounds. Count them up and record their answer in the square

5. Pyramid reading cards: students practice reading fluency and proficiency with fun Christmas themed sentences. These make a great activity for sending home for student homework around the holiday season.

6. Write the room: find the hidden flashcards and write in the word for each on your master list. Students LOVE this activity!!

Detailed instructions for each activity are set out at the top of each activity and could not be easier.

There is a little cutting and laminating involved with some activities but many use clear folders to make your job easier!

Perfect for a sub binder, emergency plans, or as a back up activity when you happen to have a few minutes to spare. A great set to have on hand as an extra centre activity at Halloween time. Your K-3 Immersion students will love them!

When to use this resource in the classroom:

These activity sheets are Christmas themed and can be used for the entire month of October and even into the week following Xmas. Students love using them and they can be helpful for follow-up assessment. Just in time for progress reporting period!

I hope your students enjoy learning their vowel sounds and exploring phonemic awareness with a Holiday Theme!

Appropriate audience:

I use these activities in my French Immersion classroom with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students. I feel confident that they could be used for any grade from Kindergarten to Grade three.

I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from Kindergarten to Grade Three will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.

Qui peut se servir de cette ressource?

J’utilise ces activités dans ma classe d’immersion française avec des élèves de 1e et 2e. Je suis convaincu qu’elles pourraient être utilisées pour n’importe quel niveau de la maternelle à la 3è année pour explorer la conscience phonémique avec vos élèves.

J’aimerais savoir comment vous utilisez ce produit dans votre classe. N’hésitez pas à me contacter directement si vous avez quelque chose à dire sur cette ressource. J’aime aider les enseignants autant que je peux.
