Read through a few Christmas picture books from various cultures and time periods while at the library today. These books cover tales from Italy, Germany, the Depression Era South, and a Lakota story form the Standing Rock Reservation. Plus another cute Tomie de Paola story. I recommend them all!

This would be a cute HF story to read around the holidays so that students can read about the feasts that happen and different traditions around the world. This book is a Laura Ingalds Wilder award winner. I would use EL strategy 20 "List the most important words and phrases you use or plan to use in a presentation on a transparency or chalk board" because their might be terms about other traditions that will be unfamiliar to students.
