Instructional Ideas

  • Allow pupils to choose which writing prompt they wish to finish 
  • Direct learners to attach the worksheet to their interactive writing journal; assign written work throughout each season  
  • Display finished products to add seasonal flair to your classroom decor 

Classroom Considerations

  • Contains a past date, but it does not interfere with the worksheet's objective 
  • The duration reflects an estimate of the time it takes to complete a prompt's first draft

Pros

  • Offers a variety of prompts, both holiday and non-holiday themed 
  • Includes festive pictures 

Cons

  • None
