Dear Santa

As part of our reading and writing lessons, students practiced writing friendly letters by writing to Santa Claus. Each letter expressed gratitude to Santa, told something the writer liked, asked a question they wanted to know more about, and listed items they'd like to receive for Christmas. Students were thrilled to receive a prompt reply and were so excited to read their responses. As you can tell from the photos, we loved our letters from Santa. Students especially enjoyed the parts of their letter where Santa mentioned personal bits of information about each student. Everyone was happy to take home their personal letter from Santa Claus.
