So does English as a Lingua Franca affect the way we celebrate? Well\, yes. We will discuss the many ways in which ELF has shifted our perception of celebrating and hopefully add festive sparks to keeping traditions and identity alive. 					\n						\n				\n						\n					\n		\n								\n					\n		\n				\n						\n							\n					\n			\n							\n						\n				\n					\n			\n						\n		\n				\n				\n						\n					\n		\n								\n					\n		\n				\n						\n							\n					\n			\n							\n						\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			Dr. Susan Stetson-Tiligadas		\n				\n				\n				\n								\n					“Snow Much Fun: Game-Driven Christmas Activities for ELL Classrooms” 					\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n								\n					Summary: In this plenary\, we’ll mix holiday cheer with instructional theory to explore why game-based activities enhance English language learning.
