It’s almost winter break and your students are going to be at home with family, eating, possibly playing video games, and maybe even enjoying some snow! You want to make sure they are learning, right? Winter break homework is essential! Send home these 5 assignments to give over winter break to make sure your students come back to school ready to learn!

1. Be kind.

Kindness doesn’t cost a thing. First, encourage your students to choose kindness every time they can. Hold the door open for a stranger, bite their tongue when they really want to snap at a sibling or a parent, and do a needed chore without being asked. #Bekind may seem like a trendy mantra for schools, but it’s really a way of life that spreads the holiday spirit. Winter break homework should be all about kindness!

#BeKind can't just be a hashtag. We have to live and model it to our Ss every day. In your words online and in person, show those around you at even though it can be tough to #choosekindness , you never know what someone is going through. Learn their story and #bekind . pic.twitter.com/ACymQgmuVz — Jen Schneider (@jenmschneider) August 7, 2018

2. Sleep in.

Teachers, students, parents all deserve some rest! When we get time off, we should use it to let our bodies relax. School starts so early for most kids, so give them an assignment to sleep in a bit (with parental permission and without sleeping the whole day away, of course)!

3. Spend some time with people you care about.

No matter what holiday (if any) your students celebrate over the break, hopefully they will be surrounded by people who they love and care about. Keep in mind, this isn’t the case for every student in your school.

For some, school is their happy place, and home is not the best place to be. For these (and really all) students, make sure they know how much you care before they leave for the break. I don’t send my 100+ middle schoolers home with gifts (I have to watch my wallet too), but I try to let them know every day (through words and actions) that I really do care about them. If you’re worried about a student being safe over break, you should let a counselor know. If it’s more than just a worry, make sure to go through the proper channels to report suspected abuse.

4. Take a nap.

Even if your students slept in, they could take a nap (provided they wake up before nap time). I promise, I will be taking a mid-day snooze on December 26 after my sugar cookie coma and Lego overload (holy cow my daughter has some Legos under the tree. . .shh. . .) subsides!

5. Read. . .anything.

OK, this sounds like a true homework assignment, but I am simply recommending for my students to read ANYTHING over break. Turn on the closed captioning on YouTube videos and Netflix shows. Read a blog post or a web article about Minecraft. Take a trip to the library and check out the latest Neal Shusterman Scythe book or an inclusive LGBTQ YA title . Anything goes over winter break. JUST READ!

Here are a few favorite titles I recommend!

Elementary Readers:

• Pax by Sarah Pennypacker

Middle School Readers:

(My middle schoolers recommend these titles!)

• The Girl Who Was Supposed to Die by April Henry

High School Readers:

• I’ll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson

These 5 homework assignments to give over winter break will have your students back to school refreshed and ready to learn in January! Of course, sending students home with bundles of worksheets, packets, and work is not recommended. “Homework” should be about enjoying time with family and a well-deserved break for teachers and students!

Winter Break Homework

• 19 Comments

Ahh, winter vacation. Something that teachers and students often look forward to in order to enjoy a well deserved break! However, sometimes this means our students are getting perhaps a larger break from learning than we want them to! I love to incorporate all kinds of winter themed activities this time of year to keep the kids engaged! This fun, free, and editable winter break homework provides a great way for students to keep up some skills and good habits over break, all while still enjoying their time off!

*Pair with our Snow Centers & Activities for Pre-K/Kindergarten !

When my students are away from school for a holiday or extended break, I want them and their families to enjoy the break and not worry about “homework.”

However, I also know that several of them may not do any reading at all over the break (and we know how important reading is!) Unfortunately, this sometimes happens to the ones who need it most.

So I send home this fun little sheet to motivate families to work on some skill building over the two week break. It is simple and kids love to complete it for a little prize ( eraser , candy cane, bookmark ).

If you love this winter break homework challenge then be sure to grab the Spring Break version too !

Homework Directions

The directions couldn’t be any more simple! The students complete the various tasks on the mugs, and color them in as they do! Easy! Yet still educational and important!

Maybe you don’t teach Kindergarten, or maybe you prefer to have different directions at the top. Good news is that this document is now completely editable!

That’s right, you can type in your own directions as well as your own tasks on the mugs!

Note: I also allow all students the chance to complete the sheet with me for a prize, especially if I know of any situation where they maybe didn’t have parent support to complete it. I will count with them, help them with sight words, etc. and count it as extra practice when they return so that they can feel proud of accomplishing it too!

When I try to print the mugs. All that shows up is the words, no mugs

I’d be happy to help you troubleshoot this issue.

You’ll want to make sure you are using an updated version of Adobe PDF Reader.

You also want to make sure you are opening the email from a home computer and not at school. District computers tend to not like our emails with links in them.

Please let me know if you have any questions?

Do you have a spring break version of this?

Hi Deonna, That is a wonderful idea! I will pass the message along to Alex and see if this is on our spring plans!

I’m also looking for the Spring Break Challenge! The Winter Break Challenge was great and very effective motivating my students! We start Spring Break soon!

Check your inbox for a message from me. : ) I just finished up the spring challenge for the Sunday Surprise today and will be putting it up on the blog later, but I sent a copy your way via email. So glad you will able to use it either this year or next!

The Spring and Winter Break Challenges are fantastic! Thank you so much for helping my students motivated to practice their new reading and writing skills!

Thank you so much for making this editable! I’m a bilingual teacher and now I can make a Spanish version for my students and their families!

This is wonderful, Barb! This makes our hearts so happy. Have fun with the Winter Break Homework Printables!

You always have such great ideas. Thanks for sharing so many with us.

I am happy to Jennifer, and thrilled you find them helpful! 🙂

Thanks so much. This is perfect as I have some parents who enjoy putting their kids to work and some who believe holidays are holidays. A happy medium 🙂

Thanks Rachael! I felt the same – the kids totally need a break, but this kind of gave an idea of some activities to try too if the parents wanted to give it a go! 🙂 Plus, since it’s editable, you can put good ol’ playful activities on there too, whatever you like!

Could you share the source of your font in the editable document please? Thanks!

Hi Chris! The credits for fonts and graphics are on the first page when you download the powerpoint. 🙂 The font that is used specifically in the parts that you can edit is called KB Alpha Basic and should embed when you edit. It (along with many others) is a font that can be found for purchase here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/FONTS-MEGA-PACK-Commercial-Use-License-All-KB3Teach-Fonts-160-Font-BUNDLE-1551950 Hope that helps!

Oh dear. How did I miss that? I even checked to see if the font source was provided in the document. Thank you for pointing it out and providing the direct link for me in your reply. 🙂 Guess I’m just having one of those moments (or days or weeks — lol).

No worries at all Chris! It’s December, that is reason enough! December is crazy for teachers! 🙂 Have a great week!

Hi Alex… I love this idea but am having trouble editing it. I have PP but there are no text boxes when I click on the mug. Am I doing something wrong? Diane

6 Creative Assignment Ideas to Make Your Students’ Holiday Homework Fun

Jump to Section

The term ‘holiday homework’ raises a collective groan when you mention it in class. The last thing your students want to do during their holidays is spending more time with their noses buried in textbooks. But who said homework had to be a dull and dreary activity? There’s plenty of time and then some to learn concepts at school; holiday homework can focus on skill-building and be a lot more fun! Here’s a list of top creative assignment or homework ideas to help students take the ‘work’ out of homework, and replace it with a whole lot of fun! 

“Assignment 1: For the Filmy Fans”

As a life coach who holds film therapy workshops in Bengaluru, Rohit Sasvehalli believes that movies can have a deep impact on the psyche when approached consciously. “Pick a specific concept the child wants to learn about, say Apartheid. Ask them to watch a movie like Invictus to understand the tensions in South Africa. It will invoke an explorative mindset,” says Sasvehalli. Give your students a choice of topics and movies to watch, review and write an essay or make a presentation on what it got them thinking about. Surely your students aren’t about to complain about watching a movie or two!

Do you see any budding filmmakers in your class? Mentoria’s holistic  career assessment test  could help them discover their calling by uniquely combining their interests and abilities! Find out more about the test here:

“Assignment 2: For the Wanderlusters”

Families often set out on trips during the holiday season. A trip is often a great platform to learn about new places and new cultures. Ask your students to document every bit of their travel, discover fascinating aspects about the place they’re visiting and turn their findings into a fantastic travel presentation for the class! It could cover a long vacation or even a day trip to the museum, beach or a nearby park.

“Assignment 3: For the Bookworms”

This creative assignment may not appeal to all your students, but the voracious readers in your class will surely welcome some binge-reading over the holidays! For this set of students, assign a list of books they can review over the holidays. Encourage them to get a library membership or even a Kindle, if they’re more accustomed to reading digitally. Give them a mix of fiction and non-fiction titles that will broaden their knowledge and urge them to think. It doesn’t have to strictly follow the curriculum; books on current events will also help them get a better perspective of what’s going on in the world.

Assignment 4: For the Crafty Ones

Do you see your students stumbling over certain difficult topics in class? Ask them to bring out their ‘crafty’ sides over the holidays and turn those concepts into flashcards!  Flashcards make learning easier , and making them will help your students hone their artistic skills!

Budding artists need guidance, and that’s exactly what we provide here at  Mentoria !  Speak to our expert career counsellors  about your future career path, or listen to the experiences of industry professionals in your field. Here Commercial Artist Mrs Krupa Patil shares what a day in her life looks like:

Assignment 5: For the Volunteer Wonders

A school in New Zealand recently got its students involved in building an outdoor classroom and won an award for creativity! Volunteering as a homework idea will help them understand the kind of problems the world is facing, put things in perspective and also help them learn how to work in a team! You could give them a list of places they could visit over the holidays or plan a class trip yourself. Let them volunteer at an animal shelter, old-age home or orphanage, where they can perform different activities like maintaining the gardens, teaching other children, reading to the elderly, or even organising a performance for the underprivileged.

Assignment 6. For the Budding Philosophers

If your students are at a stage in life where they have critical future decisions to make, ask them to ‘introspect’ over the holidays. What makes them happiest? Which activities do they most look forward to? What piques their interest and what fails to grab their attention? Give them a homework idea and ask them to write a detailed summary of their interests and how they could translate into a career option a few years down the line. If they’re confused, ask them to opt for professional guidance that will help them discover who they really are and what they should pursue in the future. We can help with that.  Students with clarity on their future are likely to be less stressed in class and focus better on their academics!

Holidays are perhaps the only time when students can study at their own pace without the looming burden of a jam-packed schedule. The holidays give students enough time to explore their interests and  use them to enhance their studying technique . Don’t overburden them with lesson plans and tough projects; instead, let them focus on building skills, exploring interests and making the most of the holiday season both in terms of education and entertainment!

We at  Mentoria  know that holidays can be crucial during high school, and students are busy figuring out what stream they want to enter. We try to make it easier for you. Our 4-step career guidance solution, helps us find the right career fit for you from 3 streams, 850+ courses & 12,000+ careers. Discover yourself during the holidays with Mentoria.

Choose your ideal path from 12,000+ career options.

How to handle winter holiday homework.

In mid- to late-December, it finally and gloriously arrives—winter vacation! But your child may not leave school with an empty backpack. Instead, she may return with one or more homework assignments that must be completed by the first week or two of January.

Winter holiday homework is assigned to students of all ages, from kindergarten to 12th grade. While it is intended to be a small portion of your child’s short reprieve from school, it is still an important one. Homework during vacations can help prevent learning loss, and it can help your student further hone critical academic skills.

As the New Year approaches, assisting your child with her winter holiday homework need not be difficult. Here are three strategies to help you handle this aspect of vacation:

1. Review each individual assignment or the homework packet

Before your student begins her winter holiday homework, carefully review each assignment that she has been given. Her homework may mirror her typical mixture of assignments during the school year (for instance, a one-page paper in AP English Literature and Composition, as well as a specific page range to read), or it may be different (a crossword puzzle that utilizes holiday terms like “snowflake,” for example). If your child is in elementary or middle school, her teacher may send a packet home that outlines expectations and the included assignments. But why is this step important? To start, understanding precisely what is expected of your student during this time period can help you better utilize the strategies that follow below.

2. Set a consistent schedule

Understandably, consistency can be difficult to achieve during the holiday season. You may be traveling to a different city, state, or country; you may be hosting relatives or friends in your own home; or you may be attending multiple holiday parties and festive dinners. With such a hectic and varied schedule, you might be tempted to delay winter break homework until a calmer time—only to realize that this calmer time is just one or two days before the conclusion of vacation. To avoid the panic that naturally results from this situation, set a consistent schedule that suits you and your family. For instance, will your high school student complete one hour of homework every third day? Or will you look at assignments with your kindergarten student for 10 minutes each morning?

More: No, your kid doesn’t have to do every extracurricular activity

3. Divide assignments into smaller portions

If your high school-age child has been tasked with reading three chapters of her AP United States History textbook by early January, consider working with her to segment this assignment into smaller, more manageable portions. For example, if she plans to complete one hour of homework every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, perhaps she can read one chapter on each of these days. This technique also works well for projects. If your elementary school student must investigate your family’s holiday traditions, consider helping her conduct research on one day and assisting with creating a poster board with her findings on another day. Not only does this strategy minimize boredom and burnout, it can also afford you the flexibility you might need during this busy holiday season.

According to CBSE, while assigning and preparing homework for the students, it is important to note they are able to develop the skills like relating, thinking, concluding, inferring. Homework should be such that the student neither feel it burdensome nor they lose interest in the subject matter. Moreover it is useful in providing them a happy experience. Homework therefore needs to be thought about and worked upon differently. Emphasis should be given on Vedic mathematics, designing quality homework rather than its quantity. Download NCERT Books and apps based on latest CBSE Syllabus.

Encompassing the aforesaid ideas, the CBSE has brought forth a Manual, “Alternatives to Holiday Homework” for classes VI to VIII. It is collection of ideas transformed into suggestive activities that are creative, interesting, meaningful and interactive, enhancing various skills, directly or indirectly related to subject matter providing students to enhance their learning and gaining knowledge based on NCERT Books following the latest CBSE Syllabus.

A well rounded development of individual knowledge happens not only from textbooks and formal education but more from the learner’s personal experiences, individual inquisitive nature and social surroundings. Homework is an area of importance and to make it more relevant for the NCERT Books classes 6th, 7th and 8th, appropriate strategies and meaningful activities may be suggested to the schools that give more time to child to explore the environment to develop creative thinking.

These activities (like OTBA for class 9 & 11 ) would be so framed that they keep the child interested in subjects and therefore would also help in enhancing the learning power. Homework is one of the areas that need urgent attention. As the students of class VI, VII and VIII develop a certain learning style and want to know and find more and more. Efforts should be made to make homework more creative and interesting so that the students do not feel burdensome while doing the same and the ultimate purpose of providing homework is served.

A survey was conducted through questionnaire prepared by CBSE to collect feedback from parents, teachers, students and other educationists on “Alternatives to Homework at Upper Primary Level” for Class Sixth, Seventh and Eighth so that appropriate strategies and meaningful activities can be designed and suggested to schools. The questions were directed to know the ideal quantity and purpose of the homework, whether homework should be assigned in all the subjects, internet usage should be a part of the homework or not, how homework helps in teaching.

Keeping in view emerging issues, there is a need to think about giving quality homework emphasizing on acquiring applied learning skills. Few points can be kept in mind while designing a quality homework by teachers: 1, Provide students capacity building activities which are followed up and acknowledged like drawing, creative writing, making puzzles, stories, plays, online games, reading online books and craft.

2. Provide them assignment sheets which improve their reading & writing abilities. Homework must enable the student to practice a skill independently. 3. A possible discussion can be held with different children on what they would like to do at home to improve in which ever area they deem necessary. Homework must be designed in a way that maximizes the chances of its completion by the students.

4. Parents should be able to understand the child’s needs and schools suggestions on how to learn mathematics, logical reasoning, etc. by doing puzzles, writing letters, reading to elders from the newspapers, making household lists, recipe making and cooking. 5. Learners who have dyslexia or number difficulty should have practice assignments overcoming their problems.

The child in middle school have a keenness to discover more and prepare for the examination. Learning is about developing new faculties, which become useful as an adult. The years 12 to 15 are years when rules become important, and doing well, excelling are given importance both at home and in the class. As the child grows chronically his/her emotional maturity also grows and there are interests which are beyond just what lessons can give.

The homework assigned should: 1. enhance study habits and practice skills (which learners are able to perform independently) 2. reinforce necessary skills both scholastic and co-scholastic among the learners. 3. enable learners to become independent learners and thinkers and develop among them 21st century skills so that they can participate in Make in India in future. 4. lead to the improvement in the academic achievement of the learner.

5. expand on the existing knowledge of the learners and be a part of the already acquired competencies in the classroom. 6. not put unneeded pressure or stress by including new learning material or difficult material to be worked upon by learners themselves. 7. be CBSE Syllabus based and as per developmental needs of the learners. 8. not require specific resources or technology which is not accessible to all learners. 9. have clearly defined, purposeful, creative and engaging activities.

It is also advised that teachers can refer to Life Skills Manuals, Health Manuals and Environmental Education Manuals which contain age appropriate and interesting activities which can be taken up by the learners individually. These activities can be assigned to learners so as to enhance their life skills, values and make them health conscious.

Homework is needed, and necessary for a teacher to be able to follow up with each child. The correction and feedback on homework is an important input that helps both parents and children to follow up and improve in areas which are needed. The recourse extra classes, can be reduced if the homework is used for learning improvement and acquisition of diverse skills. We are providing a handful help to solve or helping in solving the holiday homework.
