Description

This engaging Christmas-themed game has been designed to accompany a whole class reading of the picture book Santa Post by Emma Yarlett. Students will be challenged to use their inference skills to correctly match each Santa letter with the person who wrote it.

 

Using bold clipart, our Sorting Santa’s Post game will undoubtedly attract the attention of your students as they demonstrate their ability to apply context clues and prior knowledge to make inferences. Students will need to read the Santa letters on the game cards. Each letter includes a gift request and matching image but is missing the name of the person who wrote it! They must help Santa by inferring who might be asking for the gift. If they have an image of a person who matches the gift on their game board, they can place a counter on top of it (please note that some gifts could match with more than one person). Encourage students to justify their choices. The first student to cover each image is the winner of the game.

 

Once the resource has been printed and game cards cut out, Sorting Santa’s Post game is ready to be played. We recommend printing the game boards and cards on thick cardstock for durability. Younger students may benefit from having the resource enlarged to A3.

 

Available in our basic fun font and all Australian state fonts.
