Christmas Carol Essay Topics - Why Not Teach a Story?

Christmas Carol Essay Topics - Why Not Teach a Story?Do you have Christmas Carol Essay Topics? While I like to believe that my students are looking for answers, sometimes, they don't know where to look. They will think they are being entertained, but you know, they could just be paying attention. Don't be fooled.Sometimes, they see what you are doing and it almost looks like you are trying to teach them a lesson. You're trying to tell them something about Christmas. Then they'll probably think you are a teacher who teaches a lesson.Well, I'm not going to tell you that you have to use Carols every lesson or you are teaching a lesson. The point is that if your lessons are predictable and there is no challenge, then you are teaching a lesson. If your lessons are a little bit more challenging, but you don't have to stretch yourself too far out of your comfort zone, then you are doing some good teaching.In the end, you don't want to teach them how to read Carols. I'm sorry. You want to te ach them how to read the story and understand the characters, but not tell them what Carol is saying, or give them the lyrics.In short, Carol and Chorus songs are great because you don't need to try to teach them anything. You can teach them to sing and that's a great skill. So, take out the elements of the piece that is going to make it seem a struggle and put in some verses that get them to sing and enjoy.Even when you use Chorus, you don't want to let them know that Carol's songs are difficult to read. That's not going to help you. You want them to enjoy the entire story. You want them to want to learn how to read Carol's stories because they will enjoy reading and maybe even knowing how to read Carol's songs.As I said before, you don't have to use Carols all the time. But, if you can add a little bit of a challenge to a certain part of the lesson, and it's enjoyable for the student, then you will be showing them that there are things to learn from a story. And that is a really i mportant lesson.
