Talk about Christmas.
At Christmas, we usually get some presents, but we need to write a letter to Santa first.
Listen to this story about writing a letter to Santa.
Try your best to sound out the words or listen to an adult help to sound it out. You could also write initial sounds and draw some pictures.
