Freebie for Back to School

I whipped this little activity up to use at the beginning of the year.  I've noticed that a lot of the students aren't real sure what to expect in their new grade.  I would start out by reading First Day Jitters by Julie Danneberg.  (If you haven't heard of this book, look it up because it is Super Cute.)  Just comparing the grade the students were in last year to the grade they're in this year, is sure to ease their nerves.  I've also added some writing forms if you're interested....they're sideways because I couldn't figure out how to rotate the slide....I'm learning.....

   CLICK HERE to take a peek or download.



I hope you can use these.  They are available for download on google docs, but I'm going to make the jump and open up a TPT store.  I'm going to be crossing my fingers.....
I'm sure you do this, too, but I just love looking through our textbooks on the first day of school and showing them what they will be able to do at the end of the year.  They're pretty amazed and they get really excited for what's ahead.  

Together for Our Kids,
Denise

I love this activity! Thank you!

I was trying to download some of your past freebies Summer Vacation Writing from your August 10th post and the Clock Paddles from your July 13th post but I can't seem to download them from scrib since I am not a paying member. Will these items be available on your TPT? Or would it be possible for you to email them to me? Thank you again!
