Objective: My 4th grade students will know the different Holiday traditions by the end of the
week of going over the information. At the end of the week, I will require 75% of my students to
know the information. To help my students retain the information we will watch movies
concerning the Holidays, listen and sing songs of the Holidays, study the history of the Holidays
by using a WebQuest I have directed them to use and discover the different Holiday traditions.
Games will be included such as trivia questions that way I can see which child is still struggling
to retain the information, Students will also be required to decorate their desks with decorations
concerning which Holiday they celebrate .

WebQuest I have prepared. Students can also decorate the classroom, bring food they eat
during their Holiday, and present what they learned with theyWebQuest.
S- By the end of the week, I require 75% of my students to have a better understanding of
different Holiday traditions.
S- Students will be required to participate in singing songs, watching movies, decorating the
classroom, preparing food, and doing a WebQuest and present to the class what they
discovered.
2. U- While singing songs, students can see how other cultures celebrate their Holiday. The
WebQuest gives students a better understanding of how different Holidays celebrate, what
they eat, when it is, the history of the holiday, and why they celebrate. Movies actually show
the students how people celebrate the different Holidays. Eating different foods allows
students to discover different foods and bring diversity into the classroom.
R- On the fourth day of the week, I will require the students to participate in a trivia game so
I can assess what information the students have retained. I will go over answers that most of
the students missed and see why they missed it.
E- At the end of the week, I will go over the questions I asked them in the trivia game and
have them participate in another trivia game for extra credit points. I require 75% of my
students to know the information we have been studying throughout the week.
