What educators are saying

I love this resource! As a first year kinder teacher, I was stressing out the first week of school, but after finding this resource, I was able to relax and break this up over the first week. Made my first week go smoothly!
This resource Is AMAZING!! My kinders LOVED Camp Kindergarten. This resource is a one-stop shop to teach kinders everything they need to know about becoming experts at using materials in our classroom!

Description

Camp Kindergarten is a fun way to start the year, but also purposeful. Teach your kindergarteners your expectations and rules for using the basic tools of Kindergarten while also assessing their readiness skills all in that first week of school. Not to mention, this is also the perfect way to start teaching your centers routine while students are practicing these skills. You will love it, your students will love it, and the parents will too!

Each day of Camp Kindergarten students will learn and practice a different skill with a different classroom tool: play dough, pencils, crayons, scissors, glue, and books. Use the slideshow to teach your rules and expectations for each tool. Model for students how to use them, then give them time to practice. Finally, reward them with their camp badges once they've earned them! At the end of camp, you can celebrate by creating a poster to hang their badges on and hang them up for Open House. Parents will love these and kids will be proud to show them off.

What's included?

  • Slideshow to teach students about the different tools they will use in Kindergarten: play dough, pencils, crayons, scissors, glue, and books. The slides can also be printed out and bound as books. The slideshow is also EDITABLE!
  • Printables for students to practice the skills each day. Play dough mats, tracing lines, coloring papers, cutting lines, gluing activities, and reading anchor chart.
  • Badges for students and certificates to send home to parents when students have earned them.
  • Pieces to create a poster to display their badges.
