I teach kindergarten and I am tutoring a student in first grade. This has really helped me to make sure that I am challenging him in the right ways! Thank you so much!
I think this packet is great I'm having them printed out for all my firsties to keep their skills fresh and well prepared for second grade. I know my parents will appreciate it to ( well at least most of them :-)
Excellent!! I love that this packet covers everything from first grade. I already started my copies for the summer and can't wait to add the new pages, especially those fact fluency ones. I think there is a typo on the how to blow a bubble page though. NBD everything else is perfect!

this is an amazing pack that will keep my firsties' minds busy and active this summer before they head to 2nd grade. i love the leveled book list. that is probably the most frequently asked question i get from parents... "what books should my child be reading?" we don't level our students with guided reading levels, but you can find correlation charts online.
This is wonderful! Every year I struggle with what to do to help my kiddos keep up with what they've learned-not anymore! Thank you for such an awesome pack!
Plan on sending this home for summer practice. Awesome, awesome!!!!

Can you redo page 31 so that the first row of pictures are darker? For some reason PDF has made it too light to show up when I tried to copy it on the RISO machine. Thanks! (The page is called Summer Fun, Read and Match)
I'm working on it as we speak. I hope to have it finished by tonight or by tomorrow. It will definitely be up before the teacher appreciation sale. I'm really happy with it so far! :)

on pg. 54 there is a period or some mark at the top of the page, will you add synonyms, antonyms, contractions, compound words, adding correct ending punctuation?? thanks so much!
Hi Michelle! You mentioned on you blog you were creating a summer to first. I would love to give that to my kg'rs who are going to first! Do you plan on having is ready any time soon? Thanks! I love your store! I plan on purchasing the doller tree awards. Super fun!
Maybe my brain is on summer vacation, but on the parent's letter it states there is a summer reading log, but I can't seem to find it. Do you have one you use with the packet? LOVE THE PACKET!
I have been teaching 11 years and all 11 have been in first grade. I absolutely love teaching. I have always dreamed of being a teacher and feel blessed to be able teach 6 and 7 year olds.
