About this resource
Description
Coming back to school is the perfect time to share summer stories. This summer vacation letter worksheet gives first graders a simple, cheerful page to write about something fun they did over the break, from a camping trip to a day at the beach.
About This Worksheet
The page is titled My Summer Vacation and asks, “What did you do this summer? Write about a fun day.” Below the prompt are ten roomy writing lines sized for first-grade handwriting, followed by bright summer pictures of a tent, a kite, a sand pail, sunglasses, and an ice cream cone to spark ideas. Children can write a few sentences, a short journal entry, or a friendly letter to their teacher about their summer. Every child’s story is different, so there is no answer key.
What’s Included
- One themed writing page titled My Summer Vacation
- A simple first-grade writing prompt about a fun summer day
- Ten full-width writing lines
- Colorful summer pictures to help children think of ideas
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
- It gives young writers a real, personal topic they are excited to write about.
- It builds the habit of telling events in order, the start of narrative writing.
- It helps teachers get to know students and see their writing skills in the first weeks of school.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this first grade summer writing worksheet during the first week of school. Before writing, let children draw or talk with a partner about their favorite summer day. Remind them to tell what they did first, next, and last. Share finished pages in an author’s chair, or collect the summer vacation letter worksheet pages into a class book. At home, it makes a fun journal page to save as a keepsake.
