Blank Writing & Activity Sheets – Spring Theme
Science, Life Sciences, Seasons, Holiday & Seasonal, Summer, Spring, Common Core, Handwriting, Writing, ELA, Homeschool Templates, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Projects, Classroom Decor, Bulletin Boards, Posters, Teacher Tools, Templates, Coloring Pages
Blank Writing & Activity Sheets – Spring Theme Flexible, decorative pages for writing, drawing, music, or custom classroom materials 🌸✏️ PNG + PDF These printable pages are designed to bring a little seasonal color and calm into your classroom. With soft spring-themed decorations and no pre-set lines, you can use them in almost any subject or context. Whether your students are writing stories, solving math problems, or composing short pieces of music, these sheets give them a gentle, creative frame to work within. What I appreciate about using open-format pages like these is the flexibility. Sometimes, we just need something that’s visually appealing but still leaves space for our own content – and that’s exactly what this resource offers. What’s included: A selection of blank decorative worksheets in a spring design No lines, so you can add your own structure (or none at all) Soft seasonal visuals – not too distracting, but motivating PDF format – for printing or digital notebooks (GoodNotes, Notability, etc.) PNG Format Ideas for classroom use: I’ve used these sheets in many ways over the years – as writing paper for creative assignments, as a quiet-time drawing prompt, or even for student-made math problems. Some students enjoy using them for reflection journals or personal check-in pages. They're also great for differentiated use: students can write a paragraph, draw a process, list keywords, or create a mind map – all on the same page layout. If you’re working in a digital environment, the files can easily be inserted into apps like GoodNotes and filled in with a stylus. Sometimes it’s the small details – like giving students a beautiful sheet of paper – that makes an activity feel more special and worth their time. Best, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

Decorative Writing Sheets for Secondary Students
Science, Seasons, Holiday & Seasonal, Summer, Spring, Common Core, Handwriting, Writing, ELA, Math, Homeschool Templates, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Projects, Classroom Decor, Bulletin Boards, Posters, Teacher Tools, Templates, Coloring Pages
Decorative Writing Sheets for Secondary Students Versatile ruled pages for writing, organizing, and personalizing classroom work – in a calm and appealing design 📝🌿 PNG + PDF These decorative worksheets were created with older students in mind. They combine a clean, thoughtful layout with subtle design elements that make them suitable for many classroom contexts – from creative writing to structured math problems. Each page features light, subject-neutral decorations and matching rulings. The rulings are clearly visible but not too dominant, and their colors are coordinated with the overall design. This small detail gives the pages a more polished, motivating look – without distracting from the actual task. What’s included: A selection of printable decorative writing sheets with lines All designs with age-appropriate, calm visuals Rulings in matched color tones for a cohesive appearance PDF format – great for print or digital notebooks (e.g. GoodNotes, Notability) PNG Format Ideas for classroom use: I’ve used these kinds of pages in various ways – for summaries, vocabulary practice, reflections, and even small-scale presentations. Some students appreciate having a “special” page to write on for final drafts or project titles. They’re also useful for open tasks: students might choose how to use the space, which supports creative thinking and independence. Because the sheets are not content-bound, they work well across subjects. Whether you’re teaching language arts, science, or social studies, you can adapt them to your lesson. I’ve even let students use them for personal notes or as covers for their portfolios. They also serve well during quieter phases, in tutoring settings, or as part of personalized learning folders. And for digital classrooms, students can fill them out using a stylus or keyboard. A simple, flexible resource – and a small visual upgrade that shows students their work matters.

Watercolor Backgrounds – 10 Designs for Teaching Materials and Crafts
Common Core, Creative Arts, Holiday & Seasonal, Seasons, Fall, Spring, Summer, Winter, Resources for Teachers, Montessori, Homeschool Templates, Homeschool Curriculum, Activities, Classroom Decor, Bulletin Boards, Posters, Teacher Tools, Word Walls, Banners, Door Decor, Presentations, Crafts
Watercolor Backgrounds – 10 Designs for Teaching Materials and Creative Projects (A4 Format) PNG + PDF Over the years, I’ve realized how much a soft and thoughtfully chosen background can influence the overall tone of a worksheet, project, or presentation. Especially when working with younger learners—or just trying to break away from the usual black-and-white documents—a watercolor-style background can make materials feel calmer, more inviting, and a little more special. This set includes 10 hand-designed watercolor backgrounds , all created by me in Procreate. They’re simple, versatile, and gentle in color, making them easy to combine with your own content—whether you're designing a worksheet, setting up a presentation, or putting together printable materials like task cards or signs. Each background comes in two formats : – PNG (with transparent or clean edges – ideal for digital work) – PDF (quick and ready to print) What you can use them for: – Designing worksheets or templates for student work – Presentation slides (PowerPoint, Keynote, Canva...) – Game cards or instruction sets – Greeting cards or classroom posters – Backdrops for reflection or writing pages – And much more I’ve personally used them for everything from laminated instructions at learning centers to cover pages for student portfolios. The soft watercolor look adds warmth without being distracting—and pairs well with both playful and more serious content. Usage notes: These backgrounds are available for private and classroom use , and you may also use them commercially within the educational field (e.g. in your own teaching materials), as long as your own content is clearly visible and credit is given (by naming me as the creator or linking to my store). Please don’t resell or distribute the files as standalone images. Have fun using these designs to give your materials a personal and creative touch. – Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?

Get ready to honor our heroes in style with our Veterans Day Activities and Worksheets! This collection is packed with so much fun, even Uncle Sam would crack a smile. From coloring pages that turn your artistic genius into patriotic masterpieces, to cut and glue projects where your only opponent is gravity, these worksheets are perfect for bringing out the creative spirit in everyone. But wait, there’s more! Ever played vocabulary tic-tac-toe? No, it’s not your usual Xs and Os, it’s where words win the day and your spelling skills go on full parade. We’ve also got picture-finding activities that’ll have you squinting like a soldier on lookout and tracing tasks that’ll make you feel like a master artist (or at least an accomplished doodler). And don’t get me started on the matching games; it’s like a memory workout without the gym fees. These worksheets will have kids and adults alike celebrating Veterans Day with laughter, learning, and maybe just a tiny bit of glue-stuck-to-your-fingers frustration. So roll up your sleeves (no push-ups required), grab some crayons and scissors, and get ready to salute creativity. Because nothing says “Thank you, veterans” quite like a well-matched pair of red, white, and blue socks. Enjoy!
