As we’re now getting into “Christmas mode” at school, here are some sites that might be useful in the primary classroom.
Primary Games has a wide range of flash style Christmas games for kids. Great to use on an IWB or classroom computer.
North Pole is a great site for kids and teachers. There are stories, games and all sorts of interactive activities. Children can even write a letter to Santa and he will reply.
Kelly Tenkely has written a post on interactive Advent calendars which would be great to use with children on an IWB on the countdown to Christmas.
Fanpop has a collection of links to 100 classic Christmas videos. Great to watch on an IWB at the end of the school year (be warned, I have found a couple that have been dubbed in foreign languages!).
Origami Club has some step-by-step animations and printable instructions for Christmas origami such as santas, reindeer, stars etc.
Leave a comment if you have any other good Christmas links.
