Advent Calendar.

Work quietly on your advent calendar. Include:

*24 flaps or pockets (for 1-24 December).

*pictures and scenes of Germany.

OPTION ONE:

One piece of A3 paper is the backboard. This will have 24 small pictures under the 24 flaps.

Use a second sheet of A3 paper as the front: this will later be glued onto the backboard.

The front will have one large Christmas scene, with 24 numbered flaps cut into it. When the flaps are opened they will reveal the 24 small Christmas pictures you have drawn on the backboard. The flaps are usually square, cut along three sides so that they can open.

It will be easiest to glue the two sheets together, then draw the backboard pictures AFTER you have cut the flaps onto the front.

OPTION TWO:

A design of your choice.

MAIN IDEA:

To represent the 24 days of Christmas, in a visual calendar.

Viel Spass! Have fun!
