Description
This winter writing activity has students write a narrative about a winter OR holiday experience. Students will create a keepsake for years to come with this writing activity.
If you need a ready-to-teach activity in December or January, this winter writing activity will help you have fun with students while students invest in creating a narrative.
This winter writing activity includes:
❄️ Detailed lesson plans with conversation starters and differentiation ideas—completely editable!
❄️ An outline of the writing process and terms dealing with narrative writing.
❄️ A brainstorming sheet.
❄️ A point sheet. (Help students by providing an overview!)
❄️ A drafting sheet and “ready for revision” sheet.
❄️ A rubric.

Overall, with this winter writing activity:
√ This assignment is a wonderful way to practice the writing process, and it has tools to address the process.
√ This winter writing activity works well around the holiday season because students talk about their plans and memories. I left it open-ended so that students may or may not choose a religious holiday activity—public or private schools. Student should be able to write about ANYTHING memorable they have ever done over a winter break.
Purposes of this winter writing activity:
❄️ Engage students during the busy winter months. With so many breaks and odd weeks, keep students on track by connecting the content to their personal lives.
❄️ Provide structure but allow personalization! Young writers can make this narrative writing a published product to share with others over the winter holidays.
❄️ Meet standards. Just because we are busy during winter months, we can still work on writing and practice the components of a narrative.
This winter writing assignment will help you meet narrative standards, and your students will enjoy writing about their building excitement!
