What educators are saying
This is my first morning work activity. I made the name into a light gray so they could trace their name on it every day. I will also use them as a name place where they know where they sit each day. Thank you for this great resource.
Excellent resource to bridge communication between home and school. We used in student take-home folders and students could reflect on what they were learning, or had learned, in the classroom.

These placemats make a great "gift" for kids at Kindergarten Round-Up, open house, beginning of the year, mid-year, or end of the year. They're colorful, personalized, and packed with valuable skills!
You could send them home with your students so their families can help them work on skills OR you could even use these in your classroom.

HAPPY TEACHERS ARE LOVING THIS PLACEMAT & SAYING:
"Love these! My kiddos are practicing important skills at home!"
From me: :) "As a mom of an incoming Kindergartener, I created these skill building placemats just because I thought they'd be cool... but I became SOLD on them when I realized how easy it was for me to discover which shapes, numbers, and letters my daughter was getting stuck on (Besides the usual "tricky teens" and a few letters, there were some surprises for me! Yikes! She didn't know what a rectangle was?! Time to get serious!). ;) We kept her placemat at our kitchen table and it only took a moment for me to quiz her and work with her everyday. Seeing the placemat there reminded me to ask her about things. She's made huge progress in a short time. I knew if it was helpful for ME (as a Kindergarten teacher who's been teaching for almost 20 years), it'd definitely be useful for other parents, too! AND of course I got excited about how much it could help me as a teacher if my students and their families had an easy way to work at home, too! So I made placemats for all my incoming students and I'm sharing everything with you here so YOU can help you kids, families, and even yourself, too!"
