The Twelve Days of Christmas

Three Reasons to Use the Twelve Days of Christmas Theme in Your Classroom

Provide Lesson Reinforcement

Many teachers like to use the Twelve Days of Christmas traditional song to teach and review catechetical truths of the Catholic Faith. We kept that in mind when designing these materials. As children see the characters and text, they can review parts of the Catechism including naming the three divine Persons of the Holy Trinity, the four Evangelists, or the seven Sacraments.

Create a Unique Learning Area

This collection of thematic printables can build a sense of excitement and cohesion in the classroom. Children will enjoy seeing matching characters across a variety of resources including posters, coloring pages, decorations, and more.

It Is Easy to Do!

Teachers are really busy at this time of year. Not only do they have to do report cards or show proof of learning, but they have less time to do it because of additional holiday activities and an upcoming break from classes. The Twelve Days of Christmas printables can help to make decorating the classroom easier, fun, and less stressful. Not to mention, they are easy to store in a shoebox and page protectors in a folder. It is easy to get students involved in preparing the classroom when it is part of art skill development. Kids can help color in posters as an art activity, or they can decorate and make paper chains and Christmas ornaments for the classroom Christmas tree! Older students might even like to assemble some Twelve Days of Christmas Trading Cards, which reinforce the catechism!
