Advent Maze & Note Taking Page | Students Create an Advent Wreath Mini-Poster
By Catholic Kids
This is a quick and easy lesson!
Print this double-sided so the students can complete the maze, then take notes and color the note-taking page.
I love to give the students open-ended note-taking pages so students can draw, write, color, or listen as needed to remember and understand the information!
It's a great way to differentiate because the expectation is attention and focus instead of completing a set task.
This would be a great activity to go along with my Advent PowerPoint & Advent CatchPhrase.
Incorporating interactive resources like an Advent Maze and Advent Wreath lesson can significantly enrich your classroom experience during this holy season. This double-sided printable not only allows students to navigate through a fun maze but also provides an opportunity for open-ended note-taking. As they complete the maze, students can express their creativity by drawing, writing, and coloring on the accompanying note-taking page. This hands-on approach fosters deeper understanding and retention of the Advent themes, making it a memorable addition to your curriculum.
The Advent season is a wonderful time for reflection and preparation, and using a maze to explore its significance helps capture students' attention in a unique way. The Advent Wreath, with its rich symbolism of hope, peace, joy, and love, serves as a perfect anchor for discussions about the meaning of each candle and the importance of the season. By integrating this resource into your lesson, you encourage students to engage with the traditions of Advent actively. As they color and take notes, they will not only learn about the Advent Wreath but also internalize the values it represents.
This quick and easy lesson is ideal for differentiating instruction, allowing each student to engage at their own level. Rather than focusing solely on completing a task, the emphasis is placed on attention and focus, creating a supportive environment for diverse learning styles. Whether your students are visual learners who thrive on coloring or auditory learners who benefit from listening to discussions, this Advent Maze and Wreath activity provides a flexible framework to meet their needs. Elevate your Advent lessons and inspire your students to appreciate this meaningful time of year with this engaging resource!

Benefits of Hexagonal Thinking:
Hexagonal thinking is a powerful strategy that encourages students to draw connections between concepts and think critically about their learning. By linking vocabulary words like Advent, Nativity, and Christmas, students not only memorize terms but also understand their significance within the broader context of the Christmas season. This method helps enhance critical thinking skills, encourages collaboration, and promotes deeper discussions, making learning more meaningful.
Incorporating hexagonal thinking into your Advent activities can transform how students engage with essential vocabulary, leading to richer conversations and a more profound understanding of the holiday season.
