Hello There Teacher Friend,
My name is Jenny and I have been teaching ELA at the middle school level for close to 20 years and Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol is one of my ALL time favorite stories to teach.
A Christmas Carol is a classic story that every student should read. It is not JUST a story for those who celebrate Christmas. It is a story for EVERYONE. The story’s themes of choosing kindness, loving your neighbor, helping those in need, and not letting your life be ruled by greed are universal and timeless.
I am so excited to share my FREE teacher training with you! You can also purchase my personal A Christmas Carol resources to support your teaching.
Happy Teaching!
Sincerely,
Jenny
