All About Me Book

8/14/2020

During the first week of school we make "all about me" books and read them at circle time so the children can get to know each other a bit better. With the covid-19 pandemic I know some children will not be attending an in person classroom environment so feel free to share the completed books with other students through your home or virtual classroom.

The book includes the following pages:

cover page - child colors person to look like them

my name Is - write and decorate name

this Is my picture - glue picture of child

this Is my handprint - trace around and color or paint and press

my favorite colors - color in the three circles

I know these letters - cut and glue letters child can identify

I know these numbers - cut and glue numbers child can identify

I know these shapes -cut and glue shapes child can identify

I know these colors - cut and glue colors child can identify

this Is my family - draw and color a picture of family

my favorite foods - cut and glue images (magazine or internet search)

my favorite animals - cut and glue images (magazine or internet search)

You do not need to complete all of the pages of the book especially with younger children. I intentionally left out a page for the child's phone number as well as an address page to protect the child's identity in case the book gets lost. You can grab the book pattern below:

I LOVE these pages. I use them in the children's portfolio. This book is awesome as children reach milestone in their learning, and it is so easy to share with families as a visual of their child's growth over time.

I absolutely love this for the first week of school. I know my SK/1 student will love doing this; however, as I live in Canada, I was wondering if you would be able to create it with "colour, favourite".

I've been including this in my daycare children's portfolios for some time now. The children love working on the pages (I let them color and glue pictures and the letters/numbers/shapes on the pages) and the families love viewing the pages and the progress their children are making. For example, I put the date on the colors/letters/numbers/shapes as the children master the recognition so the parents/caregivers can witness the progress over time. It's just a very nice unit to have :-)
