Christmas is coming - beautiful poetry and activities
This is my choice of absolutely beautiful Christmas poetry by the Ghignas, and activities based on it. I use it for all levels, it�s such lovely imagery, wonderful language, delightful rhythm, that your lessons will practically plan themselves. Christmas doesn�t always have to be the typical songs - you can expand and enrich with poetry like this.

This project is also inspired by a post in the forum about students� science exam answers/bloopers and expanded using some �false� definitions many of you wrote (I hope nobody minds my using it as inspiration and linguistic material).
