school winter holiday homework

Winter Break Homework

Ahh, winter vacation. Something that teachers and students often look forward to in order to enjoy a well deserved break! However, sometimes this means our students are getting perhaps a larger break from learning than we want them to! I love to incorporate all kinds of winter themed activities this time of year to keep the kids engaged! This fun, free, and editable winter break homework provides a great way for students to keep up some skills and good habits over break, all while still enjoying their time off!

*Pair with our Snow Centers & Activities for Pre-K/Kindergarten !

Help keep important skills sharp over break with this FREE editable winter break homework. It's perfect for Pre-K, Kindergarten, and 1st grade!

When my students are away from school for a holiday or extended break, I want them and their families to enjoy the break and not worry about “homework.”

However, I also know that several of them may not do any reading at all over the break (and we know how important reading is!) Unfortunately, this sometimes happens to the ones who need it most.

So I send home this fun little sheet to motivate families to work on some skill building over the two week break. It is simple and kids love to complete it for a little prize ( eraser , candy cane, bookmark ).

If you love this winter break homework challenge then be sure to grab the Spring Break version too !

For this winter break homework assignment, the students complete the tasks on the mugs, and color them in as they do!

Homework Directions

The directions couldn’t be any more simple! The students complete the various tasks on the mugs, and color them in as they do! Easy! Yet still educational and important!

Maybe you don’t teach Kindergarten, or maybe you prefer to have different directions at the top. Good news is that this document is now completely editable!

That’s right, you can type in your own directions as well as your own tasks on the mugs!

Note: I also allow all students the chance to complete the sheet with me for a prize, especially if I know of any situation where they maybe didn’t have parent support to complete it. I will count with them, help them with sight words, etc. and count it as extra practice when they return so that they can feel proud of accomplishing it too!

Since this winter break homework is editable, you can type in your own directions as well as your own tasks on the mugs!

When I try to print the mugs. All that shows up is the words, no mugs

I’d be happy to help you troubleshoot this issue.

You’ll want to make sure you are using an updated version of Adobe PDF Reader.

You also want to make sure you are opening the email from a home computer and not at school. District computers tend to not like our emails with links in them.

Please let me know if you have any questions?

Do you have a spring break version of this?

Hi Deonna, That is a wonderful idea! I will pass the message along to Alex and see if this is on our spring plans!

I’m also looking for the Spring Break Challenge! The Winter Break Challenge was great and very effective motivating my students! We start Spring Break soon!

Check your inbox for a message from me. : ) I just finished up the spring challenge for the Sunday Surprise today and will be putting it up on the blog later, but I sent a copy your way via email. So glad you will able to use it either this year or next!

The Spring and Winter Break Challenges are fantastic! Thank you so much for helping my students motivated to practice their new reading and writing skills!

Thank you so much for making this editable! I’m a bilingual teacher and now I can make a Spanish version for my students and their families!

This is wonderful, Barb! This makes our hearts so happy. Have fun with the Winter Break Homework Printables!

You always have such great ideas. Thanks for sharing so many with us.

I am happy to Jennifer, and thrilled you find them helpful! 🙂

Thanks so much. This is perfect as I have some parents who enjoy putting their kids to work and some who believe holidays are holidays. A happy medium 🙂

Thanks Rachael! I felt the same – the kids totally need a break, but this kind of gave an idea of some activities to try too if the parents wanted to give it a go! 🙂 Plus, since it’s editable, you can put good ol’ playful activities on there too, whatever you like!

Could you share the source of your font in the editable document please? Thanks!

Hi Chris! The credits for fonts and graphics are on the first page when you download the powerpoint. 🙂 The font that is used specifically in the parts that you can edit is called KB Alpha Basic and should embed when you edit. It (along with many others) is a font that can be found for purchase here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/FONTS-MEGA-PACK-Commercial-Use-License-All-KB3Teach-Fonts-160-Font-BUNDLE-1551950 Hope that helps!

Oh dear. How did I miss that? I even checked to see if the font source was provided in the document. Thank you for pointing it out and providing the direct link for me in your reply. 🙂 Guess I’m just having one of those moments (or days or weeks — lol).

No worries at all Chris! It’s December, that is reason enough! December is crazy for teachers! 🙂 Have a great week!

Hi Alex… I love this idea but am having trouble editing it. I have PP but there are no text boxes when I click on the mug. Am I doing something wrong? Diane

9 Festive Holiday-Themed Writing Activities For Middle School ELA

festive writing activities for middle school

Looking to fill the last weeks of December with holiday-themed writing activities? You’ve come to the right place! Channel your holiday spirit while engaging students in fun yet meaningful learning opportunities.

Many teachers feel like getting anything meaningful done in these last weeks of December is impossible. And, yes, as winter break inches closer, it becomes more challenging to keep students on task. However, if you find creative ways to bring festive fun into your classroom, you can channel the holiday spirit into meaningful learning opportunities.

I’m here to help you leverage that festive (and sometimes chaotic) energy to engage students in writing activities that align with educational standards and bring the holiday magic into your classroom. The best part? It doesn’t have to involve hours of planning and prep work. (That’s a gift in itself.)

Read on to discover my favorite low-prep writing activities designed to keep students engaged in learning while having a holly jolly time in the weeks leading up to the holiday break.

9 Fun & Festive Writing Activities

Stop battling the “pre-winter break” struggle with your students. Instead, make the most of the holiday spirit by assigning these festive and fun writing activities perfect for December!

1. Character Ugly Sweater Contest

Like an ugly sweater contest, but make it literary.

Hosting a character ugly sweater contest is the perfect way to combine characterization with a little holiday fun. This activity seamlessly blends creative artwork with analytical writing, challenging students to design a Christmas sweater for a literary character. Start with a blank ugly sweater template . Then, let students have fun decorating an “ugly” sweater that represents their chosen character, including quotes, images, symbols, adjectives, and more. Have each student write a paragraph analysis explaining their choices, turning a classic festive sweater into an opportunity for character exploration and analysis.

Alternatively, you can have your students create symbolic sweaters representing a theme or an entire novel!

2. Winter-Themed Poetry

A perfect writing activity for December and beyond.

If you’re looking to steer clear of specific holidays, winter-themed poetry is the perfect option. Encourage your students to explore the beauty of winter through the lens of poetry. This is a perfect opportunity for students to showcase their knowledge of figurative language and poetic devices. Students will have a blast bringing winter to life through symbolism, metaphors, personification, symbolism, onomatopoeia, and more! To add an extra layer of creativity, have students exchange and illustrate each other’s poems, putting their descriptive writing to the ultimate test. Then, they can go around matching the illustrations to the poems.

If you want to kick up the holiday spirit, have your students write magically descriptive poems about abstract concepts, like holiday cheer, or concrete images, like a Christmas tree.

3. “Paint” a Picture with Sensory Details

Oh, what fun it is to write with sensory details!

Looking for a quick yet effective writing activity this December? This is it. Challenge students to describe the sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and textures associated with the holidays. Whether it’s the scent of gingerbread, a twinkling Christmas tree, or the soft crunch of snow under your boots, students bring classic holiday settings or items to life with this fun writing challenge. Encourage them to create a description by combining descriptive writing and as many of the five senses as possible.

Want to add a little twist? Have students share their descriptions, and their peers guess the holiday element based on the vivid sensory details.

4. Holiday Memories

Practice narrative writing with a holiday twist.

Teaching narrative writing is a must in the secondary classroom, and it certainly comes with its challenges. Luckily, December is the perfect time to inspire and engage students in narrative writing prompts. Rather than the dreaded “I have nothing to write about” roadblock, students tend to have more to say regarding their favorite holiday memories and traditions. Challenge them to delve into their most cherished holiday memories, describing them with great detail through sensory language and imagery. Remind students that their pieces should make the reader feel like they were also experiencing the moment.

This reflective exercise sharpens narrative writing skills while tapping into the magic of the holidays.

5. “Roll Out” a Holiday Story

Another festive activity to help students surpass writer’s block.

Break through the “what do I write about” roadblock with the “Roll Out” A Holiday Story activity. Select six holiday-related options for classic story elements such as character, setting, conflict, and theme. Assign each option a number 1-6 so when students roll the dice for each component, it will determine a brainstorm for their narrative. Not only does this spark creativity, it also gives each student something more specific to write about while leaving plenty of room for creative fun. These unique plots often turn out festive and sweet or ridiculously funny, making them a joy to read.

This engaging exercise transforms the (often dreaded) writing process into a fun and festive game, making it both entertaining and intellectually stimulating.

6. A Festive Argument

Teenagers love to argue, right? So, why not make it festive?

While this activity has the main elements of a classic argumentative writing activity, it has a festive twist. Rather than choosing from traditional argumentative prompts regarding social media or school uniforms, provide students with a list of holiday-themed topics to take a stance on. This writing activity requires them to employ persuasive and argumentative writing techniques, incorporating ethos, pathos, and logos, to make their case. Despite the holiday twist, students must articulate their opinions in a structured and convincing manner.

Some favorite topics include arguing for the best Christmas tradition, holiday movie, or winter activity. Feel free to steal these for your classroom!

7. A Children’s Christmas Book

Who doesn’t love a good Christmas story?

This activity is a great way to review plot structure and get into the Christmas spirit. Invite students to gather around as you read a few of your favorite Christmas stories before encouraging them to write (and illustrate) one of their own. Students will craft holiday tales, bringing the magic of storytelling to life through words and illustrations. It’s also a perfect opportunity for students to exercise their knowledge of theme and descriptive writing. Spread the cheer by teaming up with a local elementary classroom and having your students read their stories to the younger kids.

Remember, it’s possible that some of your students don’t celebrate Christmas. Adjust this activity to best reflect your students’ winter holidays and traditions.

8. A Recipe for the Perfect Holiday

Talk about a recipe for festive fun!

Writing about abstract concepts can be challenging for students. That’s where this activity comes into play. Rather than the pressure of diving into an abstract concept in an analytical essay, students will transform holiday-related abstract ideas into concrete creations with this fun and creative writing activity. Instead of writing a recipe for holiday food, students will write their recipe for the perfect holiday. Students must create a list of “ingredients” before bringing it all together with a step-by-step process. Since holidays mean something different to each person based on their experiences and traditions, this is a personalized activity packed with meaning.

Have students bring in their favorite holiday recipe (for an actual food or beverage) to share with the class and serve as inspiration for the elements of a recipe.

9. Gingerbread House Listing

Get ready for a tasty treat of persuasive writing!

In this writing activity, students aren’t necessarily decorating gingerbread houses, but they are trying to sell them. Have students put on their realtor hats and use persuasive writing to “sell” their very own gingerbread house. Students will draw a gingerbread house before creating a compelling real-estate listing, attempting to convince you to make a purchase. I recommend having students review actual house listings first to get inspiration and build a stronger understanding of what to include. This hands-on approach combines real-life writing with creativity and holiday fun.

You can take this a step further by letting your students actually build their gingerbread houses for a delicious extension activity!

Even More Holiday Writing Activities

Ho, ho, ho no it doesn’t end there! Here are a few more holiday writing activities to sprinkle into your plans over the next few weeks.

Assign festive bell ringers
Write a Christmas dialogue
Provide holiday story starters
Create Christmas movie character diary entries
Write creative holiday-themed news articles
Take a stance on the great real vs. fake tree debate
Correct grammar in holiday-themed sentences

So Much Holiday Writing Fun to Have, So Little Time

If you’re like me, you may want to do all of the things. But trying to do that (in the weeks leading up to the holiday break, no less) is enough to drive any teacher insane. And I’m all for supporting teachers in maintaining their sanity during these next few weeks. In fact, if you need some tips to help you do so, check out my teacher’s guide to surviving the holiday season .

If you’re torn between choosing from multiple writing activities in this post, consider doing a Holiday writing choice board. Your middle school students will love the freedom to select a writing activity that resonates with their interests. The element of choice promotes a sense of ownership over their writing while keeping students engaged and focused on festive yet meaningful activities leading up to winter break.

It’s Time to Get Festive!

Rather than fighting to get your students to pay attention, channel their festive spirit into meaningful classroom experiences. Trust me, it works wonders. So, if your students normally moan and groan when you assign writing, get ready for a change! Middle school students always eat these festive writing activities up.

What other fun and festive writing activities do you have to add to the list? Let me know in a comment below!

Looking to incorporate even more holiday fun in your classroom? Here are 8 more festive ELA activities to try !

14 Winter Holiday Activities for School

What holiday (or holidays) are you celebrating in December? There are plenty of winter holiday classroom activities that can you do with your students regardless of whether they typically celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, more than one holiday, or nothing at all.

In a season marked by singing cheery songs, eating traditional holiday foods, wrapping gifts, and doing fun crafts, check out our list of holiday activities for elementary and middle school students below to ensure your class has a great send-off before winter break.

Fun Holiday Activities for Elementary and Middle School Students

1. holiday crafts for the classroom (grades k–8).

There’s so much you can do when it comes to easy holiday crafts for the classroom—the list is endless. You can start by searching social media or consulting with your teacher BFF for ideas, but here’s a list to start you off:

Making snowpeople out of cotton balls (and other supplies)
Making snowflakes out of popsicle sticks or paper
Designing holiday ornaments
Writing and illustrating a book or story based on a holiday

2. Have a Holiday Music Listening Session (Grades 3 and up)

Have each student choose one or two winter holiday songs to add to a classroom playlist. These can be traditional holiday songs, like Jingle Bells, or popular songs that celebrate winter months.

Listen to the playlist at a holiday celebration in the classroom or use it to start a discussion with your students about the music. What makes it a holiday or winter song? Consider creating a Venn diagram of words and feelings associated with the holiday season and the sounds and words in the music. Have students share their thoughts in small groups.

3. The Year in Numbers (Grades 2–3)

Celebrate the New Year by inviting students to explore the upcoming year as a number. Is the new year odd or even? What number do you get if you add 100 to the year? What if you subtract 100? How many thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones make up the new year? Provide students a copy of the printable “ New Year's Math ” to complete these and other activities. Review their work as a class and invite students to explain what they wrote. Finally, challenge students to create a visual representation of the year using base-ten blocks, tallies, counters, a graph, number sentence, or drawings.

4. Create Holiday Cards (All Grades)

It’s time for your students to get creative! Have them create holiday cards for their loved ones—their parents or guardians, family members, or close friends—using construction paper, glue, glitter, markers, and any holiday decorations you can find.

For older elementary and middle school students, you can consider even turning this into a writing assignment. Perhaps they can write short poems about the holiday they celebrate in their cards, draft a letter to somebody wishing them a happy holidays, or thank someone for a kind act they did in the past year.

5. Make a Multicultural Calendar (Grades 6 and up)

For this middle school activity, download the printable PDF below. Students will research the traditions of different cultures and create a multicultural calendar. You will need to divide your students into groups, with each one assigned to a specific culture they would like to learn more about. They will then choose a month where at least one holiday is celebrated in that culture, research those holidays, and complete the assignment below.

6. Collect Food Donations (All Grades)

This can be done on a schoolwide or classroom level. Consider collaborating with other staff to make a schoolwide effort a reality. Make sure students know that bringing in food donations is not an obligation. Keep it fun and friendly in the spirit of giving.

7. Keep It Traditional With Gingerbread-House Making (All Grades)

For this activity, Katie Risolo Radovich, a first-grade teacher at the Diocese of Rockville Centre in Long Island, New York, explains that she spends a few days collecting milk cartons from her lunchroom and then washes them out so they can be used to build gingerbread houses. This is a great way to foster student collaboration (social-emotional learning!) and get your students to be creative. Radovich says:

We have white icing and graham crackers to help give the milk cartons a gingerbread house look. Then, the students get to work with decorating. They use all kinds of candy and snacks—peppermints, marshmallows, pretzels, M&Ms, Skittles, gum drops, and so on. It is a great way to bring families into the school to build that home-school connection and to celebrate the holidays. We do this the day before break starts as a wonderful send-off!

Another option is to decorate gingerbread cookies! You can invite parents into the classroom to participate and read a holiday book aloud.

Christmas hanukkah holiday classroom games activities crafts

8. Have a Classroom Holiday Celebration! (All Grades)

Another great activity holiday school activity is having a party. You may want to have students bring in food related to whatever holiday they celebrate, such as dishes specific to certain cultures or holiday-themed cookies. You can even invite family members to the classroom and have them read picture books and discuss the importance of each holiday. Get creative—how you structure this activity will depend on many factors, including student guest policies, food restrictions, and classroom limitations.

9. Modern-Day “’Twas the Night Before Christmas” Poem (Grades 5 and up)

Download the activity below and have your students write a version of the famous poem “’Twas the Night Before Christmas.” When the poem was written in the early 1800s, the details in the poem (sugar plums, stockings, nightcaps, chimneys) were all modern. Have them update the poem to align with the technological advances and societal shifts that have taken place since then.

10. Decorate the Classroom (All Grades)

You can have your students help you decorate your classroom so that it's themed for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and winter so it can serve as an ideal environment to host your winter holiday party! Have students wrap their desks and create their own decorations to be hung up on the walls and ceilings.

11. “Warm World Wishes” Writing Assignment (All Grades)

Jade Mackney, a teacher at P.S. 43, an elementary school in New York City, recommends that rather than focusing on what your students want for themselves for the holiday season, have them consider and share their wishes for the world. This writing assignment can be a good opportunity for students to write about something they are passionate about and want to see change in the new year —world peace, a cleaner environment, or virtually anything to better their community and society. Have them share with their classmates when they finish!

12. Polar Express Party (Grades K–5)

Consider winter holiday activities for elementary students related to the book The Polar Express and/or the 2004 movie! You can have your students participate in a Polar Express pajama party, where the week before winter break, they (and the staff) come to school in their pajamas. The teacher can read the book to the class (or the students can read it themselves, depending on their age) and then watch the movie in the classroom or the auditorium. You can even serve hot chocolate and cookies. If you want, consider assigning students to complete a writing piece explaining what they would do and where they would go if they had an opportunity to travel on the Polar Express.

13. Play Holiday Word Games (Grades 6 and up)

Use holiday-related phrases to play fun holiday word games. See how many words students can make out of the phrase “Happy Holidays” (or another word or phrase related to the holidays or a specific winter holiday). Turn this into a competition by dividing your students into groups and seeing who can come up with the most words!

If you want to do something a bit more advanced, create a word search, word scramble, or crossword puzzle using holiday words. You can search online for free tools to create crossword puzzles and other word games. Be sure to tailor the words and clues to the appropriate grade level. If you teach English language arts, get creative using vocabulary words tied to the curriculum. Or, download our winter word search template (complete with answer key!) and get your students started with this free activity.

14. White Elephant or Secret Santa (All Grades)

This holiday classroom game—which can be adapted across grade levels—can take different forms. For a secret Santa, you can have students randomly pick one of their classmate’s names out of a hat. Make sure they don’t reveal the classmate they selected! That is the student they will give a gift to. Try gifting free options, such as having students write stories or poems, make crafts for one another, or create voucher coupons for their classmate.

In a white elephant, students can make crafts for their classmates, wrap them, and place the items in a central location in the classroom as gifts. You should then determine the order by which students will choose a random present to open. The first student selects and opens a random gift (make sure everyone can see what it is!), and then each student can subsequently either unwrap another gift or swap one with another participant. The participant whose gift was taken can then open a different wrapped gift or, again, choose one from somebody else. Continue until all the presents are unwrapped! There are many variations of this game, but you can read about your options here .
