$5 - $10 1st Grade Summer Resources

July represents the American summer - fireworks, cookouts, and parades! Students engage in active listening through a journey of American-inspired classical music.

Lifetime Updates

You'll have everything you need for a month of classical music appreciation with 100+ listening activities in this activity vault. You will also receive periodic updates for this resource for free! Keep an eye on your "My Purchases" tab for update notifications.

Music Appreciation Made Easy!

Do you need engaging print-and-go activities and brain breaks? The music featured in this activity packet is carefully curated and previewed - saving you hours of planning time. Just print and cue the music!

The selections are available on YouTube or your favorite streaming service. There are no wrong answers, and no musical training is required, so add a few to your sub plans, too!

Learning Objectives

• increased knowledge of composers from different backgrounds
• observe seasonal/holiday influences within a composition
• familiarity with the composer's works
• ability to recognize, and engage with, popular pieces of music
• identify different instrument sounds
• social-emotional exploration of feelings and moods within the music
• creative expression by drawing and choosing colors related to a musical theme

Social-Emotional Learning

Listening to classical music has been shown to help with self-awareness, empathy, and self-regulation. Since social-emotional learning is essential for children, incorporating classical music into your classroom or homeschool is a great way to support their development.

Talk about the emotions evoked by the selected music. What does the music make them feel? Happy? Sad? Anxious? Peaceful? Help students identify and label their emotions. Ask open-ended questions about the music and encourage students to share their thoughts and feelings.

Discuss the different instruments used in the piece of music. What does each instrument contribute to the overall sound? Encourage students to make up a story based on the music. What is happening in the story? Who are the characters? Where does it take place?

While listening, students can draw a picture or scene that comes to mind. What colors are used? What shapes? Why?

Adaptive Books with a theme of winter cover fun topics, such as colors, activities, and clothing. These books require some prep work; however, once made, you can use them year after year!  

These adaptive books are created with various students in mind, as our classrooms can be diverse! I have also found even my most reluctant readers are more eager to participate in learning activities when I pull out interactive activities such as these books. While the books have eight icons to use as choices, you can adapt by providing less when reading and asking follow-up questions. 

Book 1: Wintertime Fun

Students will listen to a short story using repetitive text paired with actions. The sentence will read, "In the winter, I like to...". After reading the sentences, have students select the correct action: sledding, ice hockey, snow angels, snowboarding, riding a ski lift, snowy nights, ice skating & building a snowman. 

Book 2: Colorful Winter

Students will listen to a story with repetitive text ("I see a") and identify the item. The items are focused on winter items. An excellent book for practicing color recognition. 

Book 3: Clothing we wear

I have provided two levels with a focus on the clothing we wear. The first level is supported with a corresponding picture so students can match the items. The second level is only words. 

Book 4: Snow Day

This short story concerns the school being called off due to too much snow. There are ten interactive pages in this book. 

Do you love adaptive books & want a lot of options for your students? Then, check out my growing bundle! Now is the time to grab this bundle, as I am making many additional sets that will be included!

The Sun Salutation sequence is a great way to start the day or any yoga practice! It helps children feel present and stress-free while drawing energy like the heat of the sun. We often use Sun Salutations to create a flow of movement from one pose to the next. Try this as the perfect warm-up for any yoga practice, to get your kids ready for school, or as an after school activity to burn off extra energy.

Our playful Sun Salutation sequence and song are perfect for children ages 4 and older. This Sun Salutation takes the strength and development of children into consideration. This variation of Sun Salutation is safe for children who do not have the core strength required to safely practice planks and low push-ups. Instead, this sequence features safe, child-friendly poses in an order that they can safely transition from one pose to another gracefully.

Sing along with us! Enjoy the lyrics of this sequence as a mnemonic device to remember the sequence for years to come. Try it as call and response when leading children of any age 4 years and up.

The Sun Salutation Sequence is a 19-page PDF download that you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper. If printed, we recommend cutting out each card and taping/gluing on a 4x6 index card or card stock. For added durability, laminate each card.

• Designed for kids ages 4+
• Printable yoga deck to learn 10 yoga poses
• Sun Salutation lyric poster
• Tips and activities for teaching the Sun Salutation sequence

Yoga teachers and educators, enjoy printing as many decks as you have students. Save money and spread the yoga love.

Wake up happy, healthy, and ready to go with the Sun Salutation sequence. Use this deck at home, school, park, or when traveling!

Extremely satisfied ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love this resource to send home at the end of kindergarten as many parents want to continue to give their child learning opportunities during the summer. It is also a good introduction to what students will learn in 1st grade and parents are able to see what their child needs to work on. If parents would like, they can use this resource to introduce students to 1st-grade concepts before the school year starts.

These themed number games are a great addition to any themed center for students who are practicing number recognition up to 100. This game is for small group instruction or can be used as a whole class game.

Designed for the pocket chart, Where's the Object? is a game for centers or whole group instruction where an object is hidden behind another object. A poem is chanted where the student(s) must say the number they think the hidden object is behind. Once guessed, the number is removed. If the hidden object is there, then it must be hidden again to play further. If is is not there, then the poem is chanted again and a new letter is guessed. This game has numbers 1 through 100.

Fall (Where's the Acorn)

Halloween (Where's the Black Cat?)

Spring (Where's the Bug?)
