1. Scavenger Hunt Activity
Place the 32 fact cards on New Year Traditions around the classroom. Students can work individually, in pairs, or in small groups to find the answers to all 32 questions on their recording sheets. They must read the fact card to find the answer for each corresponding fact question on their response sheets.

Evidence of Learning

• After the entire class has finished the Scavenger Hunt, you can display these cards on the interactive whiteboard and discuss answers. This way students can reflect on their responses while referring to the questions again.

• Have students write 2-3 facts on a New Year Tradition on a writing template of choice. This would further reinforce learning and also make a hall-stopping display.

2. Digital Activity (Boom Cards)

• Assign the 67 Boom Cards Deck via Google Classroom or your school's LMS.

• Students will read the information on each card and answer multiple-choice questions. Students who need additional reading support have the option to listen to the included audio on each information card.

• Students have the option to work on cards 1-16, or 17-32 with a single play.

• With this activity, your students will benefit from reading practice in addition to getting key information on interesting New Year Tradition facts.

• This deck is created in Flow Magic, so students have the option to go back and read the fact card again in order to respond to the multiple-choice question.
