It can be hard to keep your young students' minds focused on school when the holidays come around. Heck, it can be hard to keep your own mind focused on school when the holiday lights are up, the Christmas songs are on the radio, and the air starts to get a little chill!
Holiday writing prompts were always an easy fix. I throw a little holiday music on in the background, allow lots of choice in my students writing and my students get to writing. It is a wonderfully relaxing time.
I threw together some of my favorite prompts I've used over the past few years in a little
Christmas writing unit. It is designed for teacher ease!
This unit includes:
14 narrative writing prompts
14 informative writing prompts
14 opinion writing prompts
elf craft
Santa craft
reindeer craft
There are plenty of writing paper options, print-and-write sheets, and the crafts are only 3 or 4 pieces with plenty of space for your students to personalize and make it their own.
