--What is your favorite cookie? (sugar cookie with frosting and decorations, chocolate chip cookie, gingerbread, cut-out cookies) --Do you decorate your bedroom for
--What is your favorite Christmas carol? ("Silent Night," "Away in the Manger," "Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem," "Jingle Bells," "Up on the Housetop," "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "The Twelve Days of Christmas," "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," "Santa Claus is Coming to Town") --If you could dress up as any Christmas character, who would it be? (Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, an elf, a reindeer) --With whom do you spend Christmas day? (your family, your relatives, your friends, all of the above) --What does your tree have on top? (a star, an angel, something else) --What kind of lights does your tree have? (lights that blink, lights that don't blink, some lights that blink and some lights that don't blink) --Does St. Nicholas come to your house? (every year, some years, never) --When does your family go to church at Christmas time? (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, not at all) --Are you in the Christmas program at your church? (every year, some years, never) --Who is Santa's most important helper? (elves, Mrs. Claus, reindeer) --How does Santa get into your house? (chimney, keyhole, door, other way) --What do you get in your Christmas stocking? (presents, candy, presents and candy, don't have a stocking) --To whom do you give Christmas presents? (all your friends, some of your friends, only your best friends, none of your friends) --Who bakes Christmas cookies at your house? (mom or dad, children, whole family, nobody) --What kind of tree do you have at your house? (artificial tree, real tree bought at a tree lot, fresh-cut tree) --Where do you get the Christmas presents you give? (make the presents, buy them with money I earned, buy them with money I got from someone else, all of the above) --Who wraps the most presents at your house? (mom, dad, children, it is about equal) --What is your favorite Christmas symbol? (tree, angel, wreath, star) --What is your favorite Christmas movie? ("Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "Frosty the Snowman," "Prancer," "How the Grinch Stole Christmas," "Polar Express") I have handled the graphs for these in two ways over the years. --Each day, do a whole group graph. By the end of December, you can make a very nice display. --Hand out a different question to each child, have them survey the class, and then create a graph for that question. Each child could also write about the graph they created. (ex. I survey my class about their favorite Christmas symbol. Three more children voted for an angel than a star. The number of children who voted for a star is equal to the number of children who voted for a wreath. Star had twice as many votes as tree. I had fun surveying my class.) This also makes a great display.
