Have your kids design their own cell phone case, respond to “texts” and develop their own emoji. I love this activity because it’s a great way to discuss the conventions of conversation.
Students cut-out then sort foods according to who they think would eat them…an herbivore, an omnivore or a carnivore. Then they glue them down onto the “plates”.
A great independent research project for students. They must research Language, Currency, a Map, Government, Flag, Capital city, Population and lots more! Culminates with the class taking a “vacation” in which they view projects and rate them. The projects with the highest score “win”. Also includes a very detailed rubric and vacation sheets that students take around with them as they “tour” their classmates countries.
A great introduction to writing a biography. Explains what a biography is and walks students through the biography writing process. Teacher must decide if students conduct research on the internet, use a library book or use both!

Comes with a full color double sided “mini-book” on Polar Bears along with a Fact and Opinion organizer. Print the mini-books for the whole class (laminate and keep forever) or just make a set for Guided Reading.
You can keep the Fact and Opinions on the same sheet or have the children cut them out and make a bulletin board with them! I made an adorable board by cutting out a giant polar bear and putting the Facts cards on one side and the Opinion cards on the other side. Very cute and very easy.
MY STUDENTS LOVED THIS BOOK AND ACTIVITY!!
Simply print out the adorable kid-friendly cards, cut them out, toss them in a baggy and you’re good to go! These adorable cards present pairs of opposites. The pictures provide clues to the word meanings in case your early readers need help.
You will only need to print a few sets if you plan on using these in centers. OR you can print a class set and have students cut them out and glue onto construction paper- I might try that next year instead of the center (which my kids loved!).
Five cute Month activities with a train theme: Place the missing month car, put the months in order, use the clues to figure out which cargo to deliver, wordsearch and word scramble. By the time they’re done, they WILL know the months of the year!!
Would be great for Center Time!

The most excitement I experience teaching First Grade is when we begin our Letter Writing Unit. The children write real letters to friends and businesses then wait for their responses. It’s a load of fun and teaches authentically.
Included in this packet are directions for how to write post-cards, friendly letters, business letters, how to address envelopes, a template for use in your class for a business letter writing campaign and a letter to parents requesting the address of a friend or family member.
Directions included!!
Do some of your students work too fast! Then they might deserve a Speeding Tickets. Hand out these “tickets” if your students are rushing through their work. I laminate them and hand them out as needed. When the “perp” has shown that they did a more careful job on their work, they turn it in along with their ticket.
26 pages of Find the Letter. Perfect for Kindergarten or as a review for First Graders that first week of school.
Have your kids color in the gumballs of the letter they are looking for- I use bingo stampers which is a load of fun!
This is an adorable motivational tool that will get your students writing. Print out the cubes (I like to use card-stock) and assemble (glue spots labeled to make it easy!). Then have your kids pick three cubes to roll. They use the images on those cubes in their writing. Writing stationary included that has them circle the images they rolled for teacher reference. Two different types of lines included to suit K/1 and 2/3 writing.
Enjoy!
