Literacy-
Read the next 2 chapters in your class novel and complete a summary on both of them. Write down 5 interesting questions about your novel to ask your group when you come back to school.

Writing-
Create a story about when Rudolph goes missing the day before Christmas Eve. In your jotters plan who the characters are- what does they look like and act? Where is your story taking place? How does the story start? What is the twist in the middle and how does it end? Does Rudolph get found- how does he get found? Use our story mountain planner example to help you build up your story. Be prepared to discuss your story in class. Remember to use the grammar and punctuation we have learned about in class to up level your work.

Christmas acrostic poem- Create a poem about Christmas with the word Christmas down the left hand side of your jotter.

Christmas Rhyming Poem – Create a Christmas Rhyming Poem. Remember to include similes, metaphors, personification, alliteration and interesting adjectives.

If it’s snowing – Go outside and build a snowman! Take a picture of your snowman and stick the picture to a piece of paper. Then write words to describe the snowman’s personality and appearance around the outside of the picture. Use your words to create a character description.
You could go one step further and write an imaginative story about him/her!

Expressive Arts

Go to a window in your house and using any art material of your choice paints, pencil, pen e.t.c draw what you can see. Remember to think about detail.
