Secret Student Writing Activities Bundle Only Bonuses
- Secret Student Binder Organization Bonus:Â Binder cover, back cover, spine, tabs, and dividers for each activity
-
Auto-Filling Names Bonus Document: Each month requires your students’ names to be typed into the document. This document includes one master sheet to type your students’ names into, and they will auto-populate for the entire year on the monthly assignment cards, recording sheets, and reveal cards. Your name will also appear on each parent letter. Each set currently auto-populates students’ names throughout the unit which is still a huge time saver, but this will make it so you only have to do it once all year.
EACH WRITING ACTIVITY INCLUDES:
-
Lesson Plans
-
Intro Activity
-
Original Story
-
Editable parent letter
-
Student Name Cards– Once you type their names into these cards, they will auto-populate onto the recording sheet AND reveal activity, which is a huge time saver!

Recording Sheet to keep track of who has who

TESTIMONIALS FROM TEACHERS:
Check out what teachers have said about some of the already completed Secret Student Activities!
“This activity is perfect to sneak in a little more writing, AND community building right before the break! Thank you for the update! The autofill feature was great. I can type my students’ names as many times as I need to…but to do it once and be done was handy!” -Colleen
“OMG! This is an amazing resource. My kids are loving this activity. Thank you!” -Danielle
“This is so fun!! My students are loving this activity! We are planning a big reveal party at the end of the month and they are being so nice to each other!” -Lara
“The staff at my school do this same activity but with small gifts and my class had asked me what it meant by the sign on the door that said, “you’ve been boo’d”. I explained to them about the exchange and showing that you care for someone else and so many of them wished they could do that too so when I saw this pop up in my email I knew I had to get it. It has every component you could think of and I LOVE the auto-fill when you type your names in once, it fills it in all the other items you need. GREAT PRODUCT!!!” -Lacy
“I bought the Thankful Turkeys along with the Halloween Boo. I knew I had to have them as soon as I saw them! I’m so excited to use them in our classroom!” -Morgan
“This activity was awesome! I used this all of December along with my letter-writing unit. This was also a good activity to do during the season of giving by allowing my students to “give” each other some uplifting words. LOVED IT!” -Lea

I can’t say enough about how great this activity was for my 5th and 6th grade classes! I paired each class with a class from a different grade. My 5th graders were secret santa writers with 1st graders, and my 6th graders were secret santa writers with 3rd graders. I teamed up with the younger grades to also help them with their writing. It worked beautifully! We wrote to each other for the last 2 weeks until Christmas break, and on the last day, we revealed ourselves to each other at a Christmas cookie decorating party. We also gave each other a little treat to go with each letter. I can’t begin to tell you how just in a short time, all the students improved with their writing. The teachers of the younger grades were amazed at the improvement of writing among their students in just a short time too through this very worthwhile activity. It was such a success that we are going to continue writing to each other through pen pal journals. Thank you so much for your time in putting this wonderfully fun and educational activity together for all of us teachers out here! I will definitely be using it again next year!

My class is in desperate need of some positive classroom community building! I have been wanting to do a Secret Santa type activity, but because of the socioeconomic status at my school, I didn’t think it was possible. This is such a great idea and I’m so excited to introduce it and see it come together in the coming weeks!

This resource is fantastic. First, it’s a great way for students to focus on the positives of one another and being kind to ANYONE in their class. Second, it’s easy to organize and set up. In fact, if you use the file that allows you to type in your students’ names once and then if populates all of the customizable fields, it’s SUPER easy. My students look forward to doing this every month and I’ve gotten great feedback from parents, also! Thank you for a great resource.

There is so much in this bundle. I was so excited to set it up for my students. They had so much fun being mystery/secret writers. Many of my students were bummed that we did not get to do the end of the year writings. I tried to set it up remotely, but it did not work. There was not enough support in many of the homes. Can’t wait to try it again this year!! Thank you so much!!
