Back to School Packet

The first few days of school can be really hectic. Having some independent work for students to complete can help you get through that first week. This Back to School Packet is simple, and it can be completed independently. It would work great for 3rd and 4th graders. It could be completed with 2nd graders, but they may need more support.

The pages in this packet are 8 1/2 by 11 landscape.

The pages included are All About Me, All About Me - Math, A Portrait of Me, Meet New Friends, Your New Teacher, Classroom Rules, My Goals, Design a Backpack, Back to School Wordsearch, Homophones, and My Summer - Writing.

The My Summer Writing pages have a few pages for brainstorming. There are also a couple of pages if you'd like your students to write a paragraph(s) on what they did over the summer.

You could hand out all pages at once, and students work on them during independent work time. You also could give students one or two pages at a time. This allows them to focus more on what you've handed them, and they won't get overwhelmed by several pages at once.

You will receive a packet with 20 pages.

There is a cover page if you would like your students to put the pages into a book.
