Once again, I have bought these before I had a use for them. I am still happy I did! I always buy every new $1 (on sale) resource that comes out and I have not been disappointed once!

Thank you for creating a great resource that incorporates holiday culture with reading skills! It was the perfect product for leading up to winter break!
Adrienne N. –
My students were very curious about each topic and it was a great way to wrap up the month before Winter Break began! There were many facts and stories my class did not know about related to the various holiday customs.
Crystal W. –
This was a great addition to my classroom! The kids loved it and it was so easy to use!
Thanks!
Rose P. –
This resource was great because when things come up, as they often do, especially in December, this can be utilized. I used this for a substitute day so students would still be learning in my absence.
Lisa S. –
I used these for homework for the last week and a half before Winter Break. My kids LOVED them! They loved learning the information about each of these topics. They cheered each day when I told them the new topic. Then the next day after, they had great discussions about what they learned without eve realizing they were practicing main idea, details, and summarizing. Great resource!
Tammy K. –
My students really enjoyed learning about how each tradition started.
Alfonso M. –
Great passages for the whole class to read. The questions are grade level appropriate. Fun and engaging.
Made by Meagan Creative –
These passages are full of great information to use in so many ways. The comprehension questions alone are so great but I was able to use this resource in many different ways for many different standards.
