Weird celebrations in the classroom? Why not?
Usually when you are in the classroom, you don’t have the time to organise parties or theme-related events, since you have to cover the material before the end of the school year. With the exception of Christmas and Halloween, there's no other room for any kind of celebration. Or is there? Since our classes have become more multicultural, a special celebration for Christmas, for example, is not always suitable. So how about organising weird day celebrations or events that would make children happy and learn at the same time? Read about some ideas in this week's featured blog post.
