Kindergarten Smarties: Kindergarten

Every summer I send a summer letter home to my future kindergarten students and their parents. I find that it can be difficult to find the right words to say. I have included a FREE letter in this post for you to download to help you write your own summer letter to your future kinders!

You can download it for FREE at TeachersPayTeachers. FREE Kindergarten Summer Letter Home

The product you download comes with directions on how to use it. I only provide one sample letter in a word document format. You can then edit it as you wish. You will want to change my name to your name, my school building to the building you teach at, etc.

The product has 7 pages:
Page 1 - Directions
Page 2 - Sample letter - borderless.
Pages 3-7 - Sample letter with 5 different borders

In the FREE download, I included a letter on borderless paper (Page 2 of the product) for a few reasons. I like to print on colorful store bought paper. I usually buy colorful decorated paper for a $4-5 dollars and print my borderless letter on that. I think the letter pops a little more, looks exciting, and it appears as if I spent a lot of time on sending the letter. It is another first look at you from the parents. The mommies and daddies want to know that you care about their sweet little one and their new experience of school!

Apple Paper - Staples - $4.79 for 25 sheets

In the FREE download, I included the letter on different borders (Pages 3-7 of the product), just in case you don't have time to run out to the store, and you need these letters printed asap. : ) You can print them on card stock and colored paper to make them look more appealing. Just pick the border you like, the kind of paper you want to print on, print, and send. You can see the borders below...
