A little bit of creative fun every day in the busiest month of the year! Each advent card adds one new ingredient to a story - a character, a secret, a twist of trouble, an unexpected visitor - so by Christmas Eve your class has everything they need to write a complete short story of their own.

10 minutes a day. No prep, no marking, and no right or wrong answers. Just let their ideas run riot!

WHAT’S INCLUDED

  • 25 advent cards to print or project
  • Daily slides showing each card with a writing skill, a sentence starter and a ‘level up’ challenge
  • Teacher Guide with tips and a plan for fitting it all in before you break up
  • Christmas S.P.A.G. Puzzle Pack (word search, anagrams, homophones and a crossword, with answers), perfect for early finishers and wet play
  • Optional Story Workbook with Notes pages and a Christmas Author certificate. Children can just as easily write in their English books!

SHORT STORY COMPETITION
Pupils’ finished stories make a great starting point for my annual Short Story Competition (ages 8-14), where the best stories are published in a real book!

Written by children’s author and former teacher Caroline Boxall. Part of the Crazy Creatives series - check my shop for more!
