This product features a set of 24 thoughtful writing prompts for middle and high school students during the Christmas season. Each question is carefully crafted to encourage deep thinking and personal reflection. Prompts, each on individual task cards, can be given at the start of class, end of class, for homework, as part of a stations writing or discussion activity, or even as part of an emergency substitute plan. I personally like to begin each class during the month of December with a prompt to really get students in the spirit of Christmas. The possibilities for use are endless during a time of year when every second you can get to be hands-off is precious and your students will appreciate the time to reflect on this very special holiday. I suggest laminating so that you can use them year after year. ____________________________________________________________________________ Also, check out these great Christmas and winter-themed resources by Language Arts Excellence: ⭐ 'Twas the Night Before Christmas Figurative Language Lesson Plan
