Summertime Pack + Giveaway!

Well, we have around 25 days left--how many do you have??? I can't believe this school year is almost over! I have really enjoyed my time in 1st grade and look forward to another! :)

The stores are all geared up for summer as they have all sorts of themed merchandise out with such super fun colors! All of that inspired me to create this ULTIMATE Summertime Activity Pack!



I have been working on this since the end of March (life tends to prevent me from working on things for long periods of time!) and I am FINALLY satisfied with it and ready to share with you! :)

This MEGA pack is 353 pages of math, reading, spelling, writing, and phonics activities geared toward K-2. I just couldn't stop making activities! The pack includes:

  • Math

    • addition and subtraction
    • problem solving
    • story board and task cards
    • hundreds chart activities
    • fact families
    • attributes of 2D and 3D figures
    • money
    • making 10s and 1s
    • building numbers
    • tally marks and graphing
    • ten-frames
  • Writing
    • summer words list
    • summer writing paper
    • writing prompts
    • graphic organizer
    • parts of speech
    • punctuation
    • compound words
    • alliteration
  • Reading/Phonics/Spelling
    • summer word searches
    • sight words
    • nonsense words
    • short and long vowel sounds
    • bossy r words
    • ABC order
    • blends
    • digraphs
  • Sensory Tub ideas and activities
Whew! I think that's it. Check out some activity pics! I don't have live action shots because I haven't printed much yet.

Multisensory activities!

  3. I cannot believe how many activities and pages you included in this pack!

    My summer plans involve a lot of relaxing and spending two weeks with my niece and nephew. (They used to live five houses down from me, so when they moved I was heartbroken.)

    PS: I obviously cannot type...my FB name got an extra letter tacked on the end when I entered. Sorry!
