Christmas Advent

  • The Christmas Advent is a custom for many countries so we decided to include it in our activities and create tasks related to Christmas and to the customs of the 6 partners! 

    https://tuerchen.com/6e78bc77

    It's time to play games, solve riddles, search for customs!!

    Enjoy!!!

    Unfortunately our advent is no longer available (it was available only for 5 months)!
    Below we can see the table with the tasks given on each day of the advent as it was planned by the partners!
    The links lead to the threads in the Forum where the pupils could give their answers!

    We write here who makes a task for each day and adds its description. She also makes a thread in the Forum ‘Christmas Advent'.
