Questions teachers ask about this resource
How does the voice-recording option work?
You record yourself reading the letter at vocaroo.com, save the recording as a QR code, and drag the code onto the letter where the placeholder sits. Students or parents scan it to hear you read the letter aloud — the instructions call it especially nice for non-readers.
Is the Spanish version a full translation or just the letter?
Both the farewell letter and the customization/QR instructions are provided in Spanish, so Spanish-speaking families receive the complete experience — letter, scan prompt, and all.
Do I have to keep the sample wording?
The sample letter — written from a 2nd-grade teacher to rising 3rd graders — is only a starting point. The deck opens in Google Slides or PowerPoint, where every text element, the memories, and the signature can be rewritten to match your own classroom before you export the PDF.
