Dear Santa...
What better way to practice our writing skills than writing letters to Santa!
The students were instructed to include several questions for Santa, list a few items they want, and tell them something interesting about themselves. They did a really great job!
Its amazing how hard they are willing to work when they think Saint Nick will be reading their work.
Our Elf on the Shelve was kind enough to deliver our letters to the North Pole!
Can you believe Santa wrote us back!!!!??
The next morning we came into the classroom to find letters on each student's desk along with a brand new Christmas pencil as an award for such great writing!!!
The kids were so excited to read their letters!! I received several parent notes expressing how they treasured the letters and will save them forever! I will definitely have to make this an every year activity!
