Resource Details
Page 1 This page has been designed to be the ‘book’ itself. The top section is the front and back cover, the middle and lower section have been designed as the pages to go inside the book. Learners are to cut along ‘dotted’ lines on page 1 to create three separate strips - these are the ‘pages’ of the book. Learners then stack these three pages together - with the ‘All about me!’ cover positioned at the front and fold along the ‘dashed’ lines. Learners can write their name on the line provided on the front cover before continuing with making their mini-book.
Once this has been done learners can then stick information (see pages 2 and 3) on the front AND back of these pages to add more information to their ‘all about me’ mini-book. If learners wish to include even more information more than one copy of page 1 can be provided for learners to access - although they will only need one copy of the top section (the front and back cover of the book!)
Learners will each need a pencil, scissors and a glue stick. Adults may wish to ‘staple’ the spine of these mini-books together (along the ‘dashed lines’) once complete.
Pages 2 and 3. These pages have been designed to be cut out as individual squares and completed by learners before being stuck into the prepared mini-book. Learners can choose which ‘squares/pages’ to include in their mini book - there are several to choose from…
Information for learners to complete includes…
drawing a picture of themselves
writing the number for how old they are, drawing the correct number of candles onto a birthday cake to show this and recording in writing when their birthday is
writing or drawing and labelling something that they did during the summer holidays
colouring and writing the name of their favourite colour
drawing and labelling their favourite food (on a plate)
writing or drawing and labelling their favourite ‘thing to do’
circling a sentence to indicate whether they have a pet/s (or not)
writing the type of creature their pet is/pets are and their pets name/s
circling a sentence to indicate whether they like school (or not)
writing or drawing and labelling something they like about/to do at school

Resource Details
This resource has been designed as a ‘back to school’ getting to know each other acitivity and therefore is ideal for the start of the new term. It is also helpful for any new student who starts in the class at any point mid-term.
These sheets could make an interesting writing focused display for other learners in the school to better get to know their peers too!
Both sheets are in the same layout, however one has been designed to be more simple than the other
Simple Version
Learners complete the sentences by writing their own information on the lines provided. There is a space on the right for learners to complete a simple ‘self portrait’ - adding their eye colour, eyebrows, nose, mouth and hair. The written information on the right of this links/should link to the portrait when completed. Under the portrait learners complete their birthday, favourite colour, favourite thing to do and favourite food - all in pictures and writing.
More Able Version
Learners complete the sentences by writing their own information on the lines provided. There is a space on the right for learners to complete a simple ‘self portrait’ - adding their eye colour, eyebrows, nose, mouth and hair. The written information on the right of this links/should link to the portrait when completed. Under the portrait learners complete their birthday, favourite colour, favourite thing to do and favourite food in writing. In addition learners circle a tick or cross indicating whether they like school (or not) and can complete sentences recording one thing they do and don’t like at school - hopefully helping their new teacher get to know and understand them better.
