About this resource
Description
The first weeks of school are when children learn what good classroom behavior looks like, and young learners understand rules best when they can see them. These back to school behavior flash cards turn twelve everyday classroom expectations into clear, friendly picture cards for preschool through 3rd grade, so every child knows exactly what to do.
Each card shows one child modeling one behavior, with a short phrase underneath in big, easy-to-read type: raise my hand, listen closely, wait my turn, quiet voice, share supplies, say hello, clean up, walk inside, push in my chair, sit on my spot, try my best and wash my hands. Show one card at a time during morning meeting, read the words together, and invite a child to act it out. Then talk about how that choice helps everyone learn. The cards print one-sided, four to a page, with shared dashed cut lines, and they are ready to laminate, keep on a binder ring or tape to a wall as a behavior display. Teachers who want preschool back to school flash cards for the first day will find these just as useful in a kindergarten or 3rd grade classroom.
What’s Included
- A colorful cover page
- A How to Use page with materials, prep, steps and extension ideas
- 12 picture flash cards on three cut sheets
- An answer key with the complete card list
Here are three reasons these cards help kids. First, a picture of a real child doing the behavior is easier to remember than a list of words. Second, acting out each card gives children practice before they need the behavior in the moment. Third, keeping the cards on the wall gives you a quick, positive reminder to point to instead of a correction.
Teachers and parents can extend the lesson by playing Show Me, where you name a card and everyone acts it out, by choosing a card of the day each morning, or by catching a child following a card and giving a high five. The back to school behavior flash cards also pair well with the resources below.
