Description
The 12 days of Christmas? For teachers, the days leading up to winter break can feel more like the 12 days of distraction. Your students are excited for the holidays coming up, and it can be hard to help them feel motivated to engage in ELA learning and practice. But don’t worry -- the answer lies in some holiday-themed activities that are as fun as they are rigorous. You really can hit your learning standards in the weeks before Christmas, and this resource can help! (And the bonus? We know you’re excited for the break, too! Watching your students having fun and learning will give you the boost you need to love your job even in this difficult month!)
This Christmas Reading & Writing Activities for Middle School and High School Students unit includes 12 different reading and writing Christmas activities that can be used with ANY unit of study! All activities are evidence-based activities that are entertaining, challenging, and engaging! These activities will get your students to THINK while having fun learning. And they’re all planned out for you, so you can use your usual after-school planning time to get home earlier each day and enjoy some pre-holiday festivities with your loved ones (or take a nap).
