The first day back is planned and ready to go!
I always find that Day 1 is all about helping children feel comfortable, building connections, and establishing those vital daily routines. To help you get started, I’ve shared my complete first-day plan below. It is available in Microsoft Word format, so you can easily edit and adapt it to suit your classroom. I have used Comic Sans to ensure the document is universally compatible and highly accessible. Feel free to download, customise, and make it your own!
In a Nutshell have created an incredible range of resources! After purchasing a couple of phonics booklets, I decided to go ahead and buy the complete Level 2 pack—and I had to come back to leave a review. Amazing! This is my absolute go-to for all things literacy. The activities are perfectly levelled and beautifully presented. The children love them, and so do I! Thank you!
