Christmas Writing Prompts for Middle School and High School

Start the 12 days of Christmas early in your classroom with these holiday writing prompts! There are 12 original prompts that will challenge your students to think critically about their own writing. Each prompt can be displayed for students and includes: prompt, 1-3 different requirements (literary elements, word choice, point of view, etc.)

You can print these 4-6 to a page for students to cut and glue into their notebooks!

I like to give my students an extra quiz grade if they complete all 12 prompts. Sometimes, we even have mini writer's workshop days with these prompts. 

I've even included 3 graphic organizers to help your students plan + refine their writing.
