Make It! Literacy Challenge Cards | Christmas Pack | Years 3–6

Looking for Christmas literacy that keeps students writing right up to the last day of term, without a pile of worksheets to photocopy?

Make It! Literacy Challenge Cards are 10 zero-prep Christmas challenges where students read a short text, work through five skill-focused steps, and create a finished product to show what they know. Each challenge comes as one bright printable card with everything students need, plus a matching Google Slide to project for the whole class. Each card takes 40–60 minutes and works as a whole-class lesson or as part of a choice board.

Read It → Make It → Expert Challenge

Students might write Rudolph's letter asking Santa for Christmas Eve off, design a WANTED poster for a runaway gingerbread kid, invent a labelled blueprint for the elves' newest toy, or create a trading card for Santa's brand-new reindeer.
