My FAVORITE Christmas Writing Activity
Christmas THEMED ROLL-AND-WRITE
My goal is to SIMPLIFY our work as Language Arts educators. And this Christmas writing activity is just the thing to make the week before winter break glide by easily. My go-to writing activity for ANY holiday or special seasonal event is Roll-and-Write.
Here are a few reasons I absolutely LOVE this Christmas writing activity:
1. My students get SO into their stories!
2. It allows variety in our writing, rather than everyone writing about the same prompt.
3. It keeps kids engaged during chaotic holiday weeks in school.
4. NO PREP whatsoever. I just post to Google Classroom and voila!
5. It’s SO, SO fun!!!
Seriously. I have a blast, the kids have a blast, and it keeps them engaged when they’re jumping off the walls in excitement for the upcoming break.
This Christmas writing activity keeps ME sane during an insane week of school. End of story.

2. Make a copy of this to your own Google Drive.
3. Post to Google Classroom (or wherever you post for students).
4. Have fun keeping your students engaged and working hard!
And here’s the real trick to simplicity–you can use this same resource OVER AND OVER again!Â
Once you make a copy to your Google Drive, this becomes 100% editable! Therefore, you can easily change the writing options on the first slide to work for ANY holiday or special occasion!Â
IÂ use this for the day before Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas break, AND usually at the very end of the year (when kids get crazy…!).
Here's Why this is my favorite Christmas Writing Activity:
This resource tackles lots of crucial writing standards in one simple activity. Best of all, students rarely feel like they’re doing real work because they’re having so much fun doing it!
Overall, you can make this last an entire class period, shorten it to half a class, or even extend it further to be a several-day-long activity or project!Â

How do I download this cool resource? It says click below. There’s nothing to click on. I enter my email and it sends a link, but it’s this same page. I confirm my subscription but I’m still not seeing where I can download. Any help is appreciated.
Mary– I am SO sorry about that technical issue! The link has now been fixed and will give you direct access to this Christmas Roll-a-Story Freebie activity through my TpT store. Again, so sorry for that issue! Hope your students love this activity as much as mine do! 🙂
