Well, here in Missouri the end of the school year is near! At my school we have 14 more student days! I noticed that several states go up to June or near mid-June! This year the only long break we had more than a couple days was for Christmas. Anyway, I was all prepared to get this post out yesterday, but this is what my view was all day…..
Yes….it is SNOW joke…it’s really snow! They said it was some kind of record 5.3.13
Anyway, today is a little dreary but I know Summer will be here in no time! I am already planning the folder I will be sending home with my students over the Summer. Last year I sent home my Summer Review Packet, but this year I planned out a complete folder!
The folder I am using was the kiddos Daily 5 writing folder so I am just repurposing them!
I actually have so many great ideas for my folders that I am fretting about what to include and what to leave out…..So you make your own decision! If you are in the market for a kid and family friendly packet to send home with your kiddos over Summer break I have just the thing {or things if you would like}! Be sure to read on for a chance to win a packet!
Here is a snap shot of the folder…These are the items I have selected.
Like I said still not 100% sure!
Summer Writing
Summer Common Core Math Review & Calendars
Writing Picture Starters
Blank Writing Paper
Product Description:The Summer is near and the little ones have just met or are just about to meet their end of the year writing goals. So, you send them out the door and wait for them to return the next year as writing authors. Only, what we don’t expect is that these fantastic writers get busy having fun over the Summer and sometimes forget those skills they learned. So, fix that problem! Send the students with writing practice that is FUN!
Common Core Aligned: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.W.K.1, W.K.2, W.K.3
Included in this packet:
Informative Writing
Opinion Writing
Narrative Writing
Procedural “how to” Writing
Fiction Writing
Persuasive Writing
Each writing type is 3 pages {1 page of prompts/instruction and 2 templates}.
Print students pages 3-22, staple, and send home with students over Summer Break.
This packet is versatile…if you don’t want to send it home with students over Summer break, then use this packet within your classroom! The templates can easily be used over and over again!
This is a snap shot of the persuasive writing prompt page for parents and the writing template for students to complete their story on. There is also blank writing pages within the packet. Which is what I will also be sending home with my kiddos!
This packet is $3. Click below to view on TpT!
I will also be sending home the review of Kindergarten Common Core math standards! This packet comes with a 3 month quick daily math skill checks, practice pages, and incentives for completion.

Product Description:
Ready, Set, First {an introduction to first grade ELA & Math common core standards}
This packet is designed as a reference for Kindergarten parents. It is an overview of the important standards that will be expected of their soon to be first grader. I am more than aware that the transition from Kindergarten Common Core Standards to First Grade Common Core Standards is quite a task. So, why not help prepare these little Kinders?
A majority of the ELA and Math standards are covered in this easy send home packet. I have 25 students in my classroom so I made this packet quite condensed so it would be manageable to run a copy for each student in the classroom.
This packet would be great to send home at Spring Parent/Teacher Conferences or for Summer Break! Simply print pages 3-17 and you’re done!

Now for your chance to win one of these babies…..

Wonderful ideas! We're just starting kinder now (homeschooling my almost 5 year old), but I like the idea of seeing a finish line…what she should know by the end of the school year. 🙂

I feel your pain! We have had snow at least 1 day a week for the last 4 weeks in Denver. It's making it hard to believe it's really May. 🙂
