This is a FUN no prep creative Christmas writing assignment. Students write a job inquiry letter to Santa. The students brainstorm possible North Pole jobs. They are writing from the point of view of an elf. They provide Santa with three reasons why he should hire them for the job. I provide you with the lesson plan, learning target, success criteria, teacher example, brainstorming web, planning outline, and a grading checklist. This is my FAVORITE Christmas writing assignment; therefore, I wanted to share it with others. ENJOY!
