Daily Writing Prompts | Creative Writing | Winter Writing Center Activities

These winter and seasonal writing activities are perfect for daily practice in your writing center! Great for writing motivation in kindergarten and first grade.

Which kid doesn't love building and creating things?! My students cannot get enough of these Build it & Write activities!

⭐️⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️ “My students absolutely loved writing with this resource. The graphics are cute, my students liked acting out the cut pieces before writing...they wrote soooo much more when using this resource. I also am grateful for the differentiation within this resource as I taught a first & second grade split class this year. Thank you!!!” -Nicole D.

To Use:

Simply print! NO PREP, independent work packet, so it's perfect for centers, morning work, or at-home learning! Students pick the pieces they want to build the picture, color them, cut & paste them on, and write about it! They can also draw more details if they'd like. It's creative writing + fine motor skills!

2 versions included:

LEVEL I :

*picture word bank

*4 pieces

*dotted lines around most pieces for easier cutting

*sentence prompt to trace

LEVEL II :

*larger word bank

*more pieces

*extra writing paper for 2-sided copying- word bank on both sides!
