Christmas Fantasy & Mythology Vocabulary Puzzles Balanced Literacy, Vocabulary, Christmas/ Chanukah/ Kwanzaa


Theses humorous fantasy and mythology illustrations of Christmas will certainly capture your students’ attention! When images are presented with vocabulary words, students more readily remember and use the new words. By using jigsaw puzzles, the learning of vocabulary becomes even more enjoyable. I designed this puzzle set, so there is only one correct match.

*Begin this activity before the holidays or winter vacation and finish it after. I have included a website they will enjoy over their vacation. Also, it’s nice to come back to an on-going project.

Common Core stresses the importance of vocabulary in every subject. How does a teacher introduce all of these words a student needs to know? This hands-on activity can be used to introduce or review words. The puzzle pieces fit perfectly in a pocket chart, but they also can be used on a table or floor.

Jigsaw puzzles with task card activities are a simple low maintenance center that students love. The fifteen activities presented in this resource will enhance various concepts and vocabulary.

Here is what’s included:

*Vocabulary puzzles: 28 self-correcting pairs with vocabulary, illustrations & definitions
*15 activities on task cards
*Teaching Ideas
*Resizable Center Sign (cover of product)

*Vocabulary Words: Angel, Centaur, Dragon, Elf, Faun, Gnome, Fairy, Griffin, Pegasus, Mermaid, Minotaur, Humanoid, Phoenix, Unicorn, Pixie, Sea serpent, Sea-horse, Fantasy, Alicorn, Mischievous, Mythical, Marine, Characteristics, Enchant, Humorous, Myth, Resemble, and Dream
