With the back-to-school steadily upon you, you are probably starting to feel it as a teacher or homeschool mom. There are five fun school activities that you must integrate into your classroom this semester to ensure the kids have plenty of fun.
Decorate the School Bus Fine Motor Activity
The first activity sheet you need is a great way to welcome your kindergarten students or welcome back those in first and second grade. It is a decorated the school bus project. You can use it among your other fine motor activities as your students must cut out the decorations at the bottom of the page themselves.
The sheet is done up in full color to hold the student’s attention, but it has other benefits too:
- Works with fine motor skills
- Silly kids in Halloween costumes in the bus to make kids laugh
- There is a large line for students to write their name
All About Me Introduction Activity
The all about me introduction worksheet puts a classic spin on the traditional act of writing your name on the chalkboard as a teacher. With this worksheet, your students get a full-color printable chalkboard with places to answer introduction questions. There are some classic back to school questions to answer:
- What is your name?
- What grade are you in?
- What is your favorite color?
- What is your favorite game?
Students who are not very good at writing can draw on the worksheet. This worksheet can also go in your fine motor activities bank because they can cut out the “chalkboard” magnates and glue them on the page for decoration.

This five activity printable welcome back to school pack aims to get to know your students in a fun and relaxed way.
