There is something that we always forget when it comes to learning, or doing homework at home. I have even done it with my kids. We are working so hard on math and reading that it gets forgotten. Writing. And then we come to a holiday like Thanksgiving and homework gets kind of forgotten. Well we could do some homework without the kids even knowing that it is homework.
So here is some thoughts on things to write about during holidays, Thanksgiving in particular.
things we are grateful for
things we remember about grandma and grandpa
santa
clothes, this could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on which angle you were looking at it.
christmas tree in the house and its affects if it has any.
what we want for Christmas and WHY, this could be a good persuasive piece.
does santa still use the same sleigh that he has had for hundreds of years or does he have a new updated sleigh that is all hi tech.
animals, likes don't likes
what if santa used different animals besides reindeer to pull his sled.
a ride on the polar express
snow storm that we had to stay home because of
snow storm during school so that we weren't able to go home because it was so bad
the turkey wasn't dead when we started to cook it
christmas songs, favorite, worst, write one
christmas movies, favorite, worst,
what we should eat instead of the traditional thanksgiving dinner
instead of wearing a red suit what color should santa's suit be
how people from 100 years ago react if they tried to play with the Xbox Kinect
Yes my kids helped me with part of the list.
I will be adding to the list and re-posting it through the christmas season. Please leave more writing ideas in the comments and I will add it to the list when I re-post.
Have a great Thanksgiving and a fantastic Christmas season.
