The document outlines a lesson plan for 4th grade students to learn about each other's holiday traditions. Students will be split into groups to interview their classmates about a holiday they celebrate but don't observe themselves, with the goal of learning about origins, significance, and customs. They will take notes during interviews and then present their findings to the class. Participation, sharing required information, and being respectful of others are emphasized.
