Lesson overview:

In this holiday lesson, your students learn to talk about advent calendars, share simple opinions, and practice everyday vocabulary.

By the end of the lesson, students will be able to:

  • understand and use basic vocabulary about Christmas and shopping
  • give short opinions (e.g., I agreeI don’t agreeMaybe, but…)
  • describe an advent calendar using simple sentences
  • talk about price and what’s inside a product

Lead-in:

The lesson begins with a simple vocabulary activity where students match words like overpriced, Christmas spirit, and a waste of money to clear definitions. They then read short opinions about advent calendars and decide if they agree or disagree, helping them warm up and talk about familiar holiday traditions.
