Description

This first grade back to school booklet will help make your planning for the first week of school easier and provide your 1st grade students and their families with a memorable keepsake. Having taught for many years, I know that there are always some odd minutes to fill before routines are established and often times your attention is needed to handle an immediate, unexpected matter (i.e. new student at the door who hadn’t registered prior to that day and a child who is crying because they are struggling with the transition). During those times, it is important to have an activity on hand that your students can work on by themselves. This “I am a 1st Grader” packet is it!

Use them as:

◼️ first day of school activities

◼️ first week of school activities

◼️ back to school gifts for students’ families

◼️ filler tasks during the first week of school

◼️ fast finisher tasks

WHAT IS INCLUDED:

✔ Booklet Cover

✔ My First Day of 1st Grade activity

✔ Self Portrait activity

✔ All About Me Poster activity

✔ Things I Like to Do activity

✔ Things I Want to Learn in 1st Grade activity

✔ Handwriting Sample activity

✔ My Favorite Things activity

✔ My Handprint activity

✔ Summer Snapshots activity

✔ Digital version of the resources

5 REASONS TEACHERS LOVE THIS RESOURCE:

► Many of the activities involve illustrating or coloring which are activities that are low-stress and accessible to almost every school-aged child regardless of his or her academic level. 

► Having students share their booklets with one another is a great way for your students to get to know each other.

► Students enjoy completing the activities, so you’ll find that they are happy and engaged.

► Sharing your own booklet is a great way for students to get to know you.

► There are tons of activities to choose from in this resource, so you can select which ones you’d like to use.
