Are you looking for a way to get your students interested in writing? Have them create their very own holiday writing books! First, choose a cover among the variety of reproducible covers included in this publication and have them color it. Next, staple the cover to sheets of blank paper and cut out to create a shape writing book. Have the students write and illustrate their own story, or create the book one page at a time by having the students work on a different topic each day. These also make excellent journal covers!
The holidays themed covers include: Halloween (pumpkin, ghost), Thanksgiving (turkey, Pilgrim), Chanukah (menorah, dreidel), Christmas (snowman, Santa, present), Valentine's Day (heart), St. Patrick's Day (lephrechaun), Spring (rainbow), Easter (egg, basket), Mother's Day (flowers), Summer (sun), Father's Day (shirt), Fourth of July (Liberty Bell), Vacation (beach), Birthday (cake) and more!
