Christmas Holidays

Dear Grade Fives! 

Christmas is just around the corner. I would love to hear some of the special things you like to do over the holiday season. Today, in a complete paragraph, please share some of the celebrations, activities, or visits you are looking forward to doing. 

Tomorrow, you will edit your response and have a peer check the editing as well. Please note that the checklist is a bit longer. You will also be checking that you have used proper paragraph conventions. When you have made all of your corrections, you will copy your blog and post it as usual. You may want to have two windows open side-by-side, one with the blog letter and one being your word document.


As always, I look forward to reading your responses!
Love, Mrs. French

    Christmas is my favourite thing about December. Is because you get a whole lot of presents under your tree. You can get up early in the morning and open them all. Before your mom and dad get up. This is why I like Christmas because you get a lot of presents. Christmas is the best thing in December.
    THE END

    I am looking forward to Christmas holidays. I will be looking forward to eating because of all the fresh baking and all the sweets. I also like opening presents because you don’t know what’s in them giving presents is also fun because you get to keep other people in suspense. Most of all I look forward to going to family gatherings because you get to play ping pong with your cousins. Those are the few reasons why I like Christmas holidays.

    My favourite part about Christmas holidays is when we get to open presents at my gamma’s house at Willy’s Puddle. At my family’s house I love visiting other people. I like that our friends are coming this year as we are going to go snowmobiling at Bull Mountain. Another favourite part about Christmas is when my family all sit down together and feast on turkey dinner at my gamma’s house. She makes the best turkey for Christmas. Another favourite part is when we get to go tobogganing on Boxing Day. My most favourite part of Christmas is opening presents .

    This is some of the things I like to do on my Christmas break. One of the things I like to do is bake with my grandmother. Another one is making pillows with my grandmother for my mom and dad. One of my all time favourites is playing games on Christmas night with my family. That’s why I love Christmas break.

    On Christmas break we do lots of different things. We usually go to a family dinner at my Grandma and Poppa’s. At my Grandma and Poppa’s house we open presents and have loads and loads of food. Also I like to watch Christmas movies like Elf or Christmas Story. Sometimes we bake gingerbread or sugar cookies too. I love to spend time with my family. My favourite thing about Christmas break is opening presents on Christmas day. That is what we do on Christmas break.

  12. What I am Doing For Christmas!


    My mom and dad are planning to travel to New Brunswick to visit my nana and papa for Christmas. The whole family is going there. I will see my aunts, uncles and my three cousins. We will be having a swimming party a few days before Christmas. We usually have the feast on the 25th. If I get every thing I wish for, the house will be packed with Lego Star Wars. Another good part is decorating the Christmas tree. That is what I am doing for Christmas.

    This year I am excided to do many things on the Christmas holidays. For Christmas this year my family in town and I are having Christmas at my house. I am exited for Christmas because there are so many things to do. Some of my favourite things about Christmas are: being with family, being with people and people knowing they love you, the wonderful food, the atmosphere, being with family and friends, getting to wake up in your p.j’s on Christmas day, and more! On Christmas Eve my family and I we all get to open one present. On Christmas holidays I like to go outside and play in the sparkly bright white snow. When I go outside I bundle up nice and warm. I also like to bake in the winter time for family friends and myself. This year I am excited to do many things on the Christmas holidays.

  19. This year for Christmas I am much exited for a lot of things. This weekend we are going to get our Christmas tree. We got our decorations out last weekend. My dad put the Christmas lights outside so we are very prepared other then our tree. One of the resins I am exited for Christmas is that every year all of us get a new sled. My mom always hands out the presents so that when we are done we each have our own piles of toys. After breakfast we take our new sleds outside and go sledding. Then my grandpa and my step grandma come over to have coffee, me Emily and Sarah have hot chocolate. When we are done our hot drinks we play with our new toys, and after we just can`t play anymore we watch a movie downstairs. On Christmas Eve my family comes over, my sisters me and my cousins always get pyjamas. We put them on and enjoy their comfort. After everyone is gone and before we go to bed we go on the computer and use the Santa tracker to see when he is going to come to our house, and after that we go to the fridge and get out milk cookies and carrots, the cookies and milk for Santa and the carrots for the reindeer. This is what I am looking forward to doing on the Christmas holidays.
