I think this is one of the cutest first day of school coloring pages for kids you can find! Document the new school year with this back to school graphic organizer (that’s what my teacher friends call these fill in the blank worksheets where students write their answers). What a special way to remember all the firsts!

We go back to school today and are excited for a new year, how about you? You might like to celebrate your new teacher with a fun back to school teacher gift.

Even if your school year hasn’t started yet, this is a great way to let the kids spend some time coloring and thinking about going back. You will love seeing their answers. More than the first day of school worksheet students can fill out, it’s a fun activity that will create a keepsake for years to come!

We love icebreaker activities for back to school, especially school worksheets and coloring sheets that can be included in an “all about me” book. This one has a space for a hand-drawn picture capturing what they wore their first day of school. Then they can record their height, best friend, and favorite lunch-time foods. What a happy way to get students back in the zone!

Things are different!

This year many of our kids are staring the new school year with remote school. Here is a coloring page for virtual learning. I think it is super cute and can help to get kids excited about their situation.

Simple handmade gifts or notes can be a great way to open the lines of communication. Let the teacher know you want to be a part of your child’s school year.

I really like this “If I can give you a hand” gift idea to show teachers you want to be involved.

What do you do to mark the first day and weeks of school? Do you use the first day of school coloring pages or worksheets when you return to school?

We love back to school activities like scavenger hunts to get to know the new classroom. Or how about school word searches to help students learn about the school, classmates, and staff?
