Summer Preschool Packet

The end of the school year is drawing near.  While the end of the school year brings a relazing summer break, it is also particularly sad because I will not be teaching preschool next year.  I decided to stay home and be a caregiver to some wonderful kiddos.  So, I am trying to enjoy my last month of school as I head back to my classroom after taking maternity leave.

With the end in sight it is time to start thinking about Summer Packets.  I sent home summer packets when I taught first grade and when I parent educator and this year shall be no different!

I got some great inspiration and printables at PreKinders {LOVE this site!}. 

Here is what I plan on including in my Summer Preschool Packet that I will send home with each student at the end of the year:

-Parent Letter

-A fun pencil, eraser and pencil squishy

-Pipe cleaners (for letter formation)

-A die (for game playing)

-Extra Weekly Readers

-Writing Practice Pages (I am using the review sheet from our handwriting curriculum, Handwriting without Tears)

-Name formation practice pages (these were made for each student at the Handwriting without Tears website)

-The following printables are from PreKinders-

-Learning Activities for Summer



-Rhyming Cards



-Grid Game



-Ocean Animal Race Game



-Summer Book Bingo

I plan on having my students help me create these Summer Packets.  Each student will get a ziploc with thier name on it.  Then we will form an assembly line to fill the packets, after I have explained all the components in the packet.  I am hoping by including my students in creating the packet then the more interest they will have in using it at home!
