We all know that during the holiday season it is harder to engage our students. Using holiday and seasonal activities helps to get over that hurdle. These Christmas writing activities will have your students focused and engaged while working on important writing skills.
Writing Activities that Engage
Engaging students in writing can be tough, holidays or no holidays. There’s something about a blank piece of paper and a really broad topic that overwhelms students. By just taking these away and changing up the methodology we can grab their attention and get them focused on writing. Shorter writing activities are also a great way to really focus on one specific writing skill. Once students have practiced the concept, it is then easier for them to incorporate their new writing skill into larger writing assignments.
These Christmas themed flip books are a great way to engage your students with the holiday writing and help them work on a variety of writing and language arts skills. The small, mini flip book format makes them something fun and exciting for students too. Inside this resource you will have 6 mini-books to engage your students in different types of writing. These no prep writing activities include directions so your students know just what to do. A great resource to whole class writing or adding to the writing center. Here’s what your students will work on using these Christmas writing activities.
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade Christmas writing flip books make a fun writing activity fo the holidays](https://appletasticlearning.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Christmas-Writing-9.jpg)
1. Descriptive Writing Fun
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade Chrsitmas writing activities that help with descriptive writing](https://appletasticlearning.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Christmas-Writing-2.jpg)
This flip book on My Christmas Tree is a great example. On two of tabs in this mini-book, students will focus descriptive writing. They will start with listing adjectives to describe their tree. Then they move on to using adjectives in sentences as they describe the ornaments.
Three of the 6 mini-books have descriptive writing activities. This allows students to have multiple opportunities to practice this important writing skill. You can find the descriptive writing activities in the My Christmas Tree, A Christmas Bakery and the Wrap It Up mini-books.
2. Writing and Supporting Opinions
Another important life skill we can teach our students is that of thinking through why they have opinions. It is one thing to have an opinion, we all have them, but it is another to be able to explain why we have an opinion. As our students get older, they transition from just believing what they are told to developing their own opinions. But being able to think through and explain why we have those opinions is an important part of that. Helping our students learn that “just because” or “I don’t know” are not good reasons.
Using the Christmas flip books, students will work on stating their opinions and explaining why they have that opinion. It might be their favorite Christmas ornament in My Christmas Tree, explaining what gift they would give to someone in Great Gift Giving, or writing about their favorite Christmas Carol. All opportunities to practice writing and supporting their opinions.
3. The Power of Persuasion
Learning how to write persuasively is another great skill we can teach our students. Whether they have a future in advertising, the courtroom or public service, being able to lay out a well crafted, persuasive plan is great life skill. Using the Christmas mini-books, students will practice their persuasive powers.
Practicing persuasion takes a couple of different forms in these mini-books. In A Christmas Bakery, students will create an advertisement for the bakery. This is a great way to learn how images and words can go together to persuade. Additionally, in My Christmas Tree students will write to try to persuade someone to come and see their decorated tree.
4. How to Writing
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade Explaining opinions is a great skill to practice with these Christmas writing mini books.](https://appletasticlearning.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Christmas-Writing-10.jpg)
Another writing skill your students will work on is how to writing. Being able to clearly and concisely write steps or instructions is an important skill for our students to develop.
Using the Christmas mini-books your students will have the opportunity to practice how to writing about activities they have already done in real life. The Wrap it Up mini-book will have your students writing about how to wrap a present. Here students will include a list of needed supplies in addition to writing the steps.
What’s great about this activity is that it is really simple to set-up a hands-on gift wrapping station so that kids can experience it before they write about it.
Using recycled newspaper, construction paper or wrapping paper, students can practice before writing. You can also use the hands-on gift wrapping station to have students “test” their steps. Working with a partner, students can read one step at a time while the other person completes the action. Make sure to have students do exactly what was said – no reading between the lines allowed. This activity is a wonderful way to help students see how they can be more specific with their words. Here’s an example of this type of activity done with how to writing for making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
As you can see, this type of activity really helps students to think about their words. It’s great for a whole class lesson as an engagement activity, but it’s also great to put the final writing to the test. I don’t know about you but a gift wrapping station is a lot less mess than PB&J!
More Christmas Writing Fun Too!
While these activities cover many important writing skills, there’s more too. Students will have opportunities to do some creative writing in A Christmas Bakery, and practice word variety in Christmas Carols as they work on synonyms. There’s also a fun flip book with word puzzles and a chance to write out their Christmas list.

Not when it involves Santa, or presents or Christmas trees. These resources provide a range of supported writing opportunities, from filling the blanks (the Christmas Rhymes book) to writing independently (the bordered Christmas writing printables.) Hopefully your students will knock themselves out!

Have a Holiday Book Exchange
Who doesn’t love a new book? A holiday book exchange is an excellent way to give books new life by allowing students to regift, recycle, and reuse unwanted books. This will get students eager to read over the upcoming break.
Set up your holiday book exchange by asking students to bring in gently used books from home wrapped with a bow or a candy cane. You can lay out the books ahead of time to build students’ excitement all week long!
If you have Scholastic bonus points, that’s another great way to get books for the exchange. Look for books that students have been getting excited about and you’ll really spark their interest in the book exchange!
You can grab this FREE Holiday Book Exchange Parent Letter to spread the word to adults at home!
Compare different versions of The Gingerbread Man
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade gingerbread man readers into thinkers](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/gingerbread-man-readers-into-thinkers-1024x531.jpg)
Comparing different versions of The Gingerbread Man is a great way to practice and review skills taught so far this year. All of the versions of The Gingerbread Man are excellent for teaching about central message, character traits, repetition in stories, and how characters respond to challenges. They’re a great starting point for turning readers into thinkers !
Host a holiday movie day
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade movie day freebie christmas](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/movie-day-freebie-christmas.jpg)

Have a countdown to Winter Break
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade Last week before Christmas Break countdown anchor chart](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/classroom-holiday-traditions-christmas-break-count-down-791x1024.jpg)
No list of third grade Christmas activities would be complete without a special countdown to Winter Break! Students will get so excited to see what each day will bring. We even sing an alternate version of “The 12 Days of Christmas”.
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade Christmas activities and student gifts](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/3-christmas-break-countdown-gifts-booklets.png)
Here’s how it works: Each morning roll down or uncover the chart to reveal that day’s special treat. Students use the treats to do math and ELA tasks!
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade Christmas activities and student Christmasgifts](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/7-christmas-break-countdown-fourth-grade.png)
Click here to check out what I use for this activity. I have options for grades 1-4!
Challenge your students to write one sentence summaries
One of my favorite third grade challenges, this one-sentence summary freebie is a great option if you’re looking for third grade Christmas activities. It really keeps students engaged by providing a little challenge combined with a cute craft!
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade FREE Gingerbread man one sentence summary challenge](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/FREE-Gingerbread-man-one-sentence-summary-challenge-791x1024.jpg)
It’s a simple activity too—just use some favorite books and challenge students to write a summary in one sentence only. It also makes for a great door or bulletin board decoration, which is an awesome added bonus!
Make easy parent gifts
One of the third grade Christmas activities I like to do in December is create easy and inexpensive parent gifts. I really like using Dollar Tree candles and turning them into little art projects by students. The candles can easily be made to look like snowmen, or students could decorate the candle with tissue paper scraps and watered down school glue.
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade SQUARE template2](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/SQUARE-template2.jpg)
There are also a ton of cute homemade ornament options that can easily and inexpensively be made. Check out this post to get more ideas for easy parent gifts!

Make candy cane cactus ornaments
Read The Gingerbread Cowboy by Janet Squires and make candy cane cactus ornaments! They’re super easy to do!
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade The Gingerbread Cowboy candy cane cactus ornament](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/gb-cowboy-cactus-ornaments.jpg)
Candy Cane Cactus Ornament for the Gingerbread Cowboy
Here’s how:
- Draw a cactus shape on card stock to make a tracer.
- Trace 3-4 on a sheet of copy paper.
- Copy on red paper.
- Cut out the cactus shape.
- Glue thin strips of white paper to the back of the ornament. Then turn the ornament over and trim off the extra.
- Glue pieces of green pipe cleaner to the tops of the cactus.
Hold a secret Santa of kind words
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade Secret Santa of kind words classroom Christmas activity](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/last-week-before-christmas-break-activities-secret-santa-of-kind-words-kindness-activity-791x1024.jpg)
The Secret Santa of Kind Words is one of the third grade Christmas activities that you’ll definitely want to repeat each year—it is such a precious way to spread the gift of kindness during the holiday season!
Place the names of your students in a hat. You could also add names of volunteers and school staff as well to include them in on the fun. Have each student draw a name to find out who their Secret Santa of Kind Words is, then each student makes a card and writes kind things about the person they chose!
For students who don’t celebrate Christmas, this could be a Secret Snowman instead!
Exchange gingerbread men
Exchanging gingerbread men is a great holiday tradition for your classroom and it’s a great option for third grade Christmas activities. We sign up to exchange gingerbread men with other schools each year. It’s a lot of fun!
![fun christmas writing activities for 3rd grade The Gingerbread Man Loose in the School Class Book](https://aroundthekampfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/The2BGingerbread2BMan2BLoose2Bin2Bour2BSchool2Bclass2Bbook2BLinda2BKamp-1-791x1024.jpg)

I love to incorporate math skills into my third grade Christmas activities, so this Gingerbread Decorate for Data activity is always a favorite! We generate data by decorating our cookies according to a glyph key. You can use real cookies or paper cookies for this (to avoid the mess!).

It’s awesome to see how each child is represented through the items on their gingerbread man. This is a great classroom community building activity because students can get to know their classmates through their glyphs!
We even used the ChatterPix app for students to explain what each item on their cookie represents.
Take a look at this post to learn more about how I do this activity with my students, as well as some other gingerbread math activities to try out!
