Back to School Freebies...Again!

Okay, Google Docs and I have become friends.

So, I'm going to share these again. :)

I use these butterflies on the first day of school.  We read First Day Jitters by Julie Danneberg.  Then we talk about  jitters and if we had butterflies that morning.  I made a simple graph with the title, "Did you have butterflies on the first day of first grade?".  Then I drew two columns for yes and no.  I give each student a butterfly and they come up and place it on the graph.  

They think it so funny when I put my butterfly under yes.

I keep this sheet on my clipboard to see how students get home. 

It's also great for a sub.

These notes can be used with a "Welcome Bag".  

I place each object in the bag and attach the note to the outside. :)

Tomorrow I'll be working on some projects at our teacher resource center.  I hope to make a "Noise-o-meter".  Whatever I do I'll try to take pics and share them with you tomorrow.
