Free Back to School Samples

August by Frogs, Fairies, and Lesson Plans |

Dear Fabulous Teachers,

I want to wish all of you a strong Back to School month with Free Back to School Samples. I know how hard you are working, how much time you are devoting to getting your plans written and your materials ready to go.

My way of supporting you is by sharing what I create, so you can start your year with quality resources that didn’t cost you a penny.

These materials can be used as morning work, homework, in small groups, and will give you an idea of your students’ prior knowledge.

Feel free to take everything you need, and have a joyful year!

I can feel Milo’s little legs erratically poking my thighs, revealing cat dreams in progress. His warmth and occasional purring are worth the discomfort of crooking my neck to work. He’s lovely, and I adore him. IYKYK ❤️

This is where I have lived since June of 2022. I’d forgotten how long it takes before the place where you live becomes your home. The thing I’ve missed the most since moving, is the intimate relationship I had with my garden. I knew the little special places where I had worked on, the new plants coming to live, and that somehow grounded me. It hurt to leave that behind. 

This Mother’s Day, I asked my daughters (who live on their own) if they would help me make a little garden around my mailbox. I wanted to make new memories that involved all of us again. I loved spending that time together and I know that this little garden will give me joy for years to come.

I’m learning to be patient and to enjoy not having it all figured out. Just like I always approached my classrooms. It never bothered me to start the year with blank walls. I found that having room to grow together with my students was incredibly more rewarding. 

Happy new beginnings if you’ve moved schools, grades, or even had to go to a different classroom. You’ll make it your home once again. ❤️
Timing is everything. We got the gorgeous backdrop Timing is everything. We got the gorgeous backdrop plus the plane crossing the sky at that exact moment. #poçosdecaldas
Feeling the journaling vibes like crazy today. It’s a cloudy, rainy 60F, and if you know me, you know I’m struggling. I don’t do well under cloudy skies.  It’s specially hard when the weather teases me with gorgeous spring days and then takes them away. 

Good thing I know these rainy days - literal and figurative ones - are necessary, passing moments. Disappointment makes me look inwards and helps me reflect on where I mismanaged my expectations. 

I’m just grateful that I have tools to help me get through tough times. One of those tools is to elevate the energetic levels around me by adding fire, sound, scent, and fresh air to my environment. 

If you have these kinds of days, try lighting a candle, playing music, turning on a fan or opening a window. Make yourself a cozy cup of whatever you like, and watch how supported you’ll feel.
