$5 - $10 6th Grade Holidays/Seasonal Projects (by date, oldest first)

A BOOM Cards™ Escape Room Activity & a printable Escape Room Activity about the traditions of Christmas around the world. The NO PREP activities are ideal for distance learning and perfect for students in fifth grade or sixth grade.

Both activities have been split into four different tasks; your students will need to complete each of the tasks to reveal a word. Together the four words make a phrase for them to escape the room.

The resources are great for:

• Distance learning
• Independent work
• Homework
• Guided reading sessions
• Team building lessons
• Emergency sub plans
• Reading interventions

The digital, BOOM Cards version is ideal for distance learning and the activity can be completed on tablets, phones or computers. The printable version comes in PDF format perfect for printing or uploading.

For first time BOOM Card™ users, the resource comes with an explanation of how to assign the cards to your class, and has lots of useful links to support you using the activity.

Both activities follow a similar format, with slight variances to the BOOM Cards version to allow the resource to be digital and self-marking.

In Task 1 students will read an informational text about Christmas and then find their way through a maze by answering true or false comprehension questions. If they answer the questions correctly they will reveal their first word.

In Task 2 students will complete a crossword puzzle by answering ten questions. Answering these questions correctly will reveal some hidden letters which need to be unscrambled to reveal the second word.

In Task 3 students will sort 27 timeline task cards about famous holidays, putting them in order from the earliest date in the year to the latest. When they have finished their third word will be revealed.

In Task 4 students will have to find the missing words in a wordsearch puzzle before finding a hidden word from the letters that are left over in the puzzle. This hidden word is their fourth and final word.

Some classes work better in groups than others. With this bundle, you can customize which classes receive different versions of the same project. This also works great when you have assigned the group project but inevitably have students who are absent for an extended period. Don't stress about sending work with them. Just print out the individual project and send them on their merry way!

Have your students ever heard of Fiesta de la Candelaria, Constitution Day, Día de Las Velitas, Carnaval, or dozens of other holidays celebrated throughout the Spanish-speaking world from December through February?

Not only does it review geography, but also incorporates history, culture, music, and more. And even better - Once you assign this project, your students will take on the work of teaching EACH OTHER!
