2. Writing a letter to Santa in English should be very encouraging for kids.

Answers may vary depending on the pupil. Example:

Dear Santa,

I would like to get a ball for Christmas. Also a new book.

I was good for most of the year!

I will leave a cookie for you and some water

for your reindeer on Christmas Eve.

The Christmas tree is in the living room.

Thank you.

Happy Christmas!

John

Santa Claus’ address:

Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland, North Pole

In Santa Claus’ Arctic Circle Workshop in Rovaniemi you can meet Santa Claus and his reindeer every single day of the year. You can visit Santa Claus in his own home. Santa’s Main Post Office sends letters and gifts and ensures they are stamped with a genuine postmark.

3. Children make Christmas crackers and read English jokes.

1. Ask your pupils to bring the appropriate materials or have them ready for the class. You will need: cardboard tubes, colourful paper, ribbons, glue, scissors, small presents (e. g. sweets).

2. On page 5 you will find English jokes. Cut them out and distribute among your pupils.

3. When crackers are ready, pupils pull them and read the jokes hidden inside.
