These Spanish Winter Writing Prompts solve a number of your challenges! Provide student choice and differentiation with the variety of prompts! Your students can work together in groups to write about Christmas and/or Winter Vacation, and it turns into a fun competition where everyone learns!  AND- you only correct ONE paper per group!! 

Students help each other improve their writing as they try to increase creativity, detail, sophistication and accuracy, all while having fun!  These writing prompts can also be used individually.   Embed culture and traditions into your writing practice!  There are 3 prompts for Novice High level students and 3 for Intermediate Low students.  Scaffolds such as vocab lists, sophistication word charts and a graphic organizer are all included!
