Xmas with the 6th grade students

We’ve been playing a really funny game! We have also spoken and read about the Christmas traditions in the UK. We’ve disguised our pictures as Santa, Rudolph, elves, christmas trees, snowman… so as to make a Xmas card. We’ve learned a looooooong Christmas poem! And…we’ve laughed a lot watching some sketches from Mr Bean. MERRY CHRISTMAS
