Looking to spice up your presentations? These animated GIF’s are just what you need to grab the attention of your students! This is not clip art. These are animated GIF’s that come to life when you play your slides / present your material.
Everything you see in the preview is included.
Includes:
flashing border
the 12 months
symbols to go with each month: snow flake, heart, shamrock, cloudy skies, rain showers, sun, flowers, flags, colored leaf, school bell, broom, pointing finger, bells, candy
pointing arrows
Make your presentations more interesting - use the months in your calendars, use the weather symbols in your daily discussions, use the arrows to draw attention to specific topics of interests. Have fun.
How do you use these GIF’s:
make sure that your program supports GIF’s - powerpoint, google slides, boom
copy and paste into your document - NOTHING WILL HAPPEN until you play / use the document. Otherwise, GIF’s just look like clip art on your page. But play your slides and voila - the animation begins (just like in the preview)
GIF’s are set up on a loop - meaning they don’t play forever. So, just adjust your timings and settings in the program you are using. Otherwise, see TpT helpdesk.
again, please check that the program you use supports GIF’s before purchasing this product.
remember: nothing will happen when you import the GIF - PLAY your presentation and the GIF springs to life. If the program you are using does not support GIF’s, the product will look one-dimensional (like clip art) *** don’t forget to adjust the length of your looping!

Two really fun options for your students to create a Back To School Backpack
Option #1 - Use all of the templates provided and students will craft their own backpacks.
Option #2 - Begin with a paper bag and use the templates provided to create a paper bag backpack.
Both great options ... you decide which is a better option for your students.
There are many options for writing activities included:
- on the straps
- on the front cover
- a secret pocket which students complete inserts and drop into the pocket
- 5 interactive templates created so you can have students tell you more about themselves, what makes them happy, what they are good at, a little about their family, a goal for the year, find someone who ... likes/can/wants to etc.
- have used graphics for boys and for girls
What you need:
Paper (light cardstock would be extra special), coloring pencils, glue, paper bags (if that is the option you choose)
I have included step by step directions and visuals to assist you in assembling these backpacks.
Also, view the YouTube video on how to assemble these backpacks at: https://youtu.be/_CC35oQPdho
Look at the video and decide which backpack is better suited for your students - the paper bag backpack for the little ones, the regular backpack for students in the older grades.
You must save this file on your computer. Then open and print on 8 1/2 x 14 (legal size) paper. Otherwise, your product will not be set up properly.
Hope you love it! The completed backpack will stand about 8" tall. Use it all year long and have students complete items and drop them into their backpacks!
