Many will be surprised to learn that Christmas in Australia is hot and many families celebrate at the beach.

This is another free teaching resource designed by The Curriculum Corner. Our goal is to help you fill your classroom with resources that don’t require you to spend more money than you already do!

The holidays are a great time to help children learn about differences in our world. One way you might choose to do this is by focusing on holidays in other parts of the world.

This is part of a series of free booklets we are creating to help you introduce other celebrations to your students. Look for other booklets to be added soon.

Learn about Christmas in Australia with these free resources

This Christmas in Australia booklet contains 10 pages and can be printed front to back to help you save paper.

This booklet begins with a five paragraph passage that tells about how the Aussies celebrate Christmas in Australia. The other pages provide opportunities for children to read more facts, color and complete sentences about the celebration.

As a fun extension, you might look to share common foods eaten during this time.

Another option is to have kids do a spirit day where they dress as children would during Christmas in Australia. It could be a beach day with the purpose of learning about other places.

There are also pages that ask children to research to find additional facts. These are marked with a tablet picture in the bottom right.
