It was a great resource for our first days of school together. It was engaging and helped us get to know each other better. I didn’t use every page but found it worth my time and money to help a new group tell about themselves.

I used this my first year teaching. I had no idea where to start since there are just so many rules, expectations, procedures, etc. that need to be introduced. But the first week isn’t just about that! It’s about creating a classroom family and welcoming enviornment. This resource was great for that! My students got to know each other and quickly realized that all were welcomed! I can’t wait to use it this coming school year!

Used this resource with my second graders last year but now that I teach first grade I was still able to use some of the same things. I thought they were great activities to do on the first day of school and the students liked them as well.

I like to use this packet for the first week of school just to ease students back into the school routine. I like the variety of options and it keeps them busy as we slowly learn our routines. Plus, some of the pages they can work as partners or groups so it helps build some socialization!
