Once the feast is planned on paper, it’s time to bring it to life with their artistic skills. Crayons, markers, or even glitter (if you're feeling brave) can turn their dream meal into a colorful masterpiece. Expect turkeys with sunglasses, pies with sprinkles, and enough gravy to fill a swimming pool. Perfect for classrooms, homeschooling, or post-pie downtime, this activity guarantees giggles, creativity, and maybe some outrageous menu ideas you’ll secretly want to try. It’s the most fun you can have with a pen and a plate! Enjoy!

You know that feeling when December hits and suddenly your teenager is more interested in hot chocolate than sentence structure? Yeah, me too. Last year, I spent way too many mornings fighting with my eigth-grader about grammar while she stared longingly at the twinkling lights on our Christmas tree. That is when it hit me – why was I making this harder than it needed to be? Instead of battling the season, I decided to embrace it. These 2025 December ELA Bell Ringers were born from pure desperation and a strong cup of coffee on a particularly challenging December morning. I needed something that would actually hold my daughter's attention while still covering the ELA skills she needed to practice. Turns out, when you wrap grammar fixes in winter themes and poetry analysis in holiday spirit, teenagers suddenly find English a lot more interesting. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: NO-PREP time-saving resource that is ready to print and go. 23 December activities your students/homeschoolers will actually enjoy. Grammar, creative writing, vocabulary, poetry, and literary analysis all in one. Winter and holiday themes that will keep your students/homeschoolers engaged. TOPICS COVERED: Grammar that doesn't feel like punishment. Creative writing that sparks imagination. Vocabulary that goes beyond memorization. Poetry without the intimidation factor. After three years of using and tweaking these activities in my own homeschool, I can honestly say they have become one of my December must-haves. My daughter actually asks for the creative writing prompts now (miracle of miracles). The grammar components have become our go-to review when I notice her slipping back into old habits, and the vocabulary work has strengthened her writing in ways I didn't expect. Whether you are looking for that perfect December learning balance, need emergency lesson plans when life gets crazy, or want activities that actually make your teenager think (and maybe even smile), these 2025 December ELA Bell Ringers have become the swiss army knife of my homeschool supplies. Sometimes the best resources are the ones that solve problems you didn't even know you had. If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review.

Let’s get thankful for more than just turkey with the What I’m Thankful for at School Writing Prompt! This Thanksgiving activity encourages kids to reflect on the things that make school a little less like a never-ending homework nightmare and a bit more like a fun-filled feast of learning. First, students will write about what they’re most thankful for at school, besides the obvious no homework wish. Maybe it's that one teacher who somehow makes math feel like a fun puzzle (even though it's not). Or perhaps it’s the class pet, whose only job is to look cute while everyone tries to figure out how not to kill the plant on the windowsill. Whether it's friends, favorite subjects, or that sweet, sweet recess time, kids will get to jot down their grateful thoughts. Then, the creative fun begins with a drawing! Students can illustrate their favorite school moments, perhaps an epic paper airplane contest or a perfectly executed lunch trade. This activity helps kids appreciate the little things in school, all while sneaking in some writing and drawing skills. Plus, it's a reminder that even when you're stuck with a 10-page essay, there's always something to be thankful for, like a snack break. Enjoy!

Roll up your sleeves (and maybe pass the gravy) with the Helping Hands Writing Prompt! This Thanksgiving activity encourages kids to think about how they can lend a hand, without accidentally dropping the turkey. Writing and drawing come together in this heartwarming and hilarious project that showcases the many ways we can help others during the holiday season. First, kids will reflect on all the ways they’ve been helpful, or could be helpful, this Thanksgiving. Will they set the table without sneak-eating the rolls? Offer to do the dishes instead of disappearing into a pumpkin pie coma? Or maybe their “helping hands” involve cheering up a cranky relative with a joke about turkeys crossing the road. Whatever their helping superpower, it’s time to put it into words. Next, the artistic fun begins! Kids will draw their very own “helping hands,” complete with doodles of their Thanksgiving good deeds. Add in some colorful crayons, markers, or glitter (if you dare), and these hands will be ready to hang on the fridge, the classroom wall, or right next to the dessert table for everyone to admire. Perfect for inspiring gratitude, creativity, and just a touch of turkey humor, this activity is all about making Thanksgiving more special, one helping hand at a time! Enjoy!

Unleash your inner superhero this Thanksgiving with the My Thanksgiving Superpower Writing Prompt! This fun and festive activity invites kids to imagine what kind of superpower they’d wield during Thanksgiving, because let’s face it, we all need a little extra help when it comes to surviving the holiday season. First, students will write about their Thanksgiving superpower. Would they have the ability to instantly teleport to the front of the food line (no shame in that)? Or perhaps the superpower to make endless mashed potatoes appear with just a snap of their fingers? Maybe they’d have the power to make every family member’s laugh contagious (or the uncanny ability to avoid doing the dishes). The possibilities are as limitless as second helpings of pie! Once the writing is done, the creative fun continues with a drawing. Kids will illustrate themselves in full superhero gear, cape, mask, and maybe even a gravy boat in hand. It’s the perfect opportunity to show off their artistic talents, whether their superpower involves saving the day or just saving some room for dessert. This activity combines imagination, writing, and humor, all wrapped up in a Thanksgiving turkey-shaped cape! It’s the perfect way to give thanks for the fun (and funny) things that make the holiday extra special. Enjoy!

This Thanksgiving activity combines creativity and reflection to create a heartfelt masterpiece, and no actual leaves will clog your yard. Perfect for kids who are full of thanks (and maybe a little too much turkey), this activity invites them to write and draw about the people, things, and snacks they’re most grateful for. The fun starts with crafting their very own Thankful Tree. Each "leaf" becomes a blank canvas for kids to jot down what warms their hearts, like family, friends, and possibly an unhealthy obsession with mac and cheese. Once the writing’s done, it’s time to branch out with some drawing! Students can add colorful flair to their trees, turning their gratitude into an autumnal work of art. This activity is ideal for classrooms or as a family bonding moment that doesn’t involve fighting over the remote. By the end, kids will have a beautiful Thankful Tree they’ll be proud to display, and you’ll have a little peace and quiet, at least until dessert. Fun, festive, and packed with good vibes, this writing prompt is a must-have for spreading gratitude (and maybe sneaking in a little spelling practice). Let’s get thankful! Enjoy!
