Self-Portraits & All About Me Bookets
Check out this super cute back-to-school activity Susan Cooley over at First Grader...at Last! did with her new kiddos! Loading her firsties up with craft supplies - construction paper, scrapbook paper, yarn, scissors, glue, markers, colored pencils, beads, etc. - she invited her students to create a self-portraits. Then she had them complete an "All About Me" booklet to attach to the portrait and display!
We're not sure where Susan got her booklet, but if you're looking for some inspiration for creating your own or FREE printables, here are a few suggestions...
- "All About Me" booklet from A Year of Family Home Evenings
- "I Am Special!" booklet from Kindergarten Nana
- "All About Me" booklet from A to Z Teacher Stuff
- "A Book About Me" from First Grade Best
- "All About Me" mini book from Lawteedah
[NOTE: We're sure there are lots more great printables floating around out there, but these will give you a great start!]
While you'll have to assist your preschoolers with filling in the booklets {perhaps you might send them home for parents to complete with their kiddos}, we think this is a great way for you to get to know your students and for your kiddos to get to know each other!
