Description
Imagine being that educator…the one whose kids just ‘get’ how to write Santa letters! Learning about writing a letter or postcard is an important literacy skill, and while this activity doesn’t teach the steps, it is an early exposure to letter writing for Pre-K and Kindergarten students.
This Writing Letters To Santa Christmas Center can be used for centers, small group instruction or 1:1 work with a teacher or assistant. The activity includes both postcard and letter paper templates in a mix of blank and illustrated styles, an envelope template and stamps to cut out. You can either print the color versions of the set, print in plain black and white for kids to color, or print on colored paper. The set also includes 2 different sizes and styles of label to decorate the front of your mailbox. There is a lot of scope for differentiation in this set – just choose and print the pages that suit your own kids.
This Writing Letters To Santa Christmas Center aligns with the EYLF and can be used to give your kids a solid base in early literacy and social skills. The interesting pictures keep young players engaged and build visual discrimination skills at the same time, while celebrating a popular Christmas custom.
