First Grade is an exciting time! It's a year of tremendous growth!! This is an excellent way to showcase their growth throughout the year and it makes a great end of the year gift and keepsake!! It's a portfolio and memory book rolled into one!! (THIS IS THE SAME PORTFOLIO AS THE KINDERGARTEN ONE-WITH ALL OF THE TITTLES AND POEMS CHANGED TO FIRST GRADE-AS MANY OF YOU HAVE REQUESTED)
Included in the product:
-A cover page for the portfolio
-Monthly divider/title pages with a poem for that month and spaces to add photos
-Monthly self-portrait/growth chart pages (with boy/girl options)
-Monthly writing prompts
-Monthly calendar pages for writing numbers
-Letter (ABC) writing for each month
-1st day poem, self portrait poem and a poem from the teacher
-An All About Me Section includes: Poem/divider pg, house/family, school/teacher, birthday, phone #, favorite lunch, tooth chart, Things I learned and 2 autograph pages
We currently use leadership binders. I am going to start with January and keep those in the binders through to the end of the year to show growth. Next year I will start with August. Great ideas!!

I am using this in my class now. Will be a great reminder at the end of the year how far they have come.

So glad I bought this. I can't wait to see the end results at the end of the year.
I plan on using this next year with my Grade Ones. The only thing is that in Canada, our last month of school is June - not May. I'll figure out a way to get around that! Thank you so much!
Hi there! I love, love your store! I am your newest follower, Stop by my TpT Store and let me know what you think..I am still kind of new and would love fellow first grade followers and feedback!
I'm sorry. I can't do that due to copyrights on clipart, etc. It must be in PDF format so that images cannot be extracted from the document. If the edits are minor, you can email me at littlekinderwarriors@hotmail.com and I will see what I can do.

Hi Katie,
I just purchased your First Grade Portfolio packet and for some reason when I go to print the packet the borders fade off the top or one side. Not sure if this is something on my side or your side! Any advise would help! Thanks!
Hmmmm....I'm not sure why this is happening. I checked the download and all the graphics seem to line up correctly. Let's try this....
~Go to: file/print
~Click on "properties"
~Click on "Features"
Your default is probably set on "print actual size"~Select "scale to paper size" instead.
then try printing. Does that work?? We'll start there-if it doesn't work, let me know and we'll figure it out:)
