Merry & Bright Writing Fun! 6 Creative Christmas Writing Prompts for December
By Agee and Row Classical Music Appreciation
When it comes to writing, suggesting prompts can be extremely helpful for students. By providing a prompt, you can give students a specific topic or area to focus on, which can help them better organize their thoughts and ideas. Additionally, writing prompts can help spark creativity and encourage students to think outside the box.
There are six Christmas-themed writing prompts, with coordinating primary handwriting pages included. Students can also illustrate a scene in the space above their writing.
Not only will using writing prompts help get your students excited about writing, but it will also help them to practice and improve their skills. By focusing on specific areas such as grammar, punctuation, and spelling, your students will hone their technique and produce well-written pieces of work. They’ll also be able to develop their unique voice and style – something essential for any writer!
Check out our blog post Writing Prompts Your Students Will Love for more tips and inspiration!

Colorful Semantic Visual Cue Cards
By SEN Resource Source
Colorful Semantics is a structured language intervention designed to support the development of language and communication skills, particularly in children with speech and language difficulties. This resource includes visual cue cards to remind children of the colors for each type of word. It has the four standard colorful semantics colors for who, what doing, what and where but then also has four extra cards for how, who to, when and what like.
Why do you need this?
Colorful Semantics uses color coded cards to help children to learn the important elements of a sentence and how to join them together in the correct order. By visually representing each part of the sentence with a specific color, learners can better understand the structure and meaning of sentences, as well as the relationships between words.
How and when might you use this?
This approach is often implemented through a variety of interactive and hands-on activities, such as sentence building games, storytelling, and picture-based exercises. It can be tailored to the individual needs and abilities of learners, making it suitable for use in both classroom settings and speech and language clinics.
What’s included?
8 Visual cue cards for ‘who’, ‘what doing’, ‘what’, ‘where’, ‘what like’, ‘who to’, ‘how’ and ‘when’.
