1st Grade Summer Learning: Summer Review Packet

Description

About this Comprehensive 1st Grade Summer Packet

Each activity in the 1st grade review packets includes an optional lesson plan that can be utilized to teach the children about the concepts.

Our lesson plans are always simple enough that anyone, regardless of teaching experience, can use them. (Note: These 1st grade summer packets involve generic wording, such as “child” instead of “student”, so they are versatile enough to be used by teachers and parents alike)

We know your kids have a lot of other fun things they want to do this summer as well, so these games and activities pack a powerful punch in a short amount of time.

The entire contents of the 1st grade review packets are summer-themed, featuring adorable summer graphics, making these activities fun and engaging for kids.

Please note: Since they are grade-level content, we generally recommend purchasing the grade level your children/students have just completed. If you are a parent whose child is above grade level and you want to teach new content, then you may consider purchasing the next grade level.

1st Grade Summer Packet Contents:

• Adorable Summer Cover: A cute cover for your child’s summer packet with summer graphics is included so you can slide it into their binder or staple it to the front of their packet. There is a spot for their name, so it’ll be easy to set them apart if you have multiple children.

• Simple Lesson Plans for the Activities: Not an experienced teacher? No worries. We’ve been writing ready-to-go lessons that ANYONE can teach for over 5 years now. They are simple enough that anyone can follow them, but real learning is involved. Win-win!

• Daily Summer Math Review: This quick 1st grade math review will go over grade-appropriate math content broken up into five days, so your child can keep their math skills fresh! Do one problem a day if you start at the beginning of the summer- or double up if you start later in the summer.

• Weekly Math Facts Fluency Practice: These include 15-20 problems that the students should be able to solve quickly. This helps them practice their fluency skills. There are 10 of these included in each packet!

• Backward Story Problem: The students are given an answer and need to come up with a problem that has their answer. Then, they will brainstorm who and what the problem is about, write the problem, and draw a picture. The backward story problem is broken up into five days.

• Reading Lessons to Use with ANY Book! There are 5 lesson plans and graphic organizers for 5 reading comprehension strategies. You can switch strategies every 2 weeks, or mix and match however you would like. This lesson can be used over and over with different books each time!

• Comprehension Questions: This page contains some suggested questions you can ask your student to spark conversation about the book(s) you are reading with them so that students can continue their comprehension skills even while they are home.

• Daily Sentence Work: The daily sentence work addresses all core standards in language for each grade level. Students will correct one sentence each day for the duration of the summer (or, if you start mid-summer, you can opt to double up instead!) 10 pages are included with 5 sentences per page.

• Summer Writing Lessons: Writing is a great way for kids to use their imagination over the summer! Students will practice narrative, informative, opinion, poetry, letter writing, and comic book writing! Tons of passages are included… all of which have a summer theme.
