  1. Cassandra I. –

    This resource was a lifesaver during the first week of school! The “How to Use School Supplies” Fine Motor Activities are not only engaging but also incredibly practical. My students learned the correct way to use scissors, glue, pencils, and more—all while strengthening fine motor skills in a fun, low-pressure way.

    Everything is clear, easy to prep, and classroom-tested. The activities helped establish expectations while keeping students busy and learning. For $7.00, it’s a smart investment that sets the tone for a successful year.

  2. Nikki D. –

    My students loved to use this. They liked learning how to use each school supply and practicing as well. I think this is super cute and easy to follow along and understand.

  3. The Crayon Club –

    OBSESSED WITH THIS! This is a resource that I used in the beginning of the year and am still referencing our “badges” in April. Each student had to complete the “challenge” in order to get their badge on our Badge Board (anchor chart displayed in my room). I was able to refer to the badge board and say “Are you using that glue the right way? Remember you earned your glue badge!”. I highly recommend this product!!

    I found this resource and wanted it immediately; it’s what I was looking for but didn’t know I was looking for it. I teach the three-year-old preschoolers, and this resource is how I introduce them to the tools they will be using in my classroom. I use it at the beginning of the year, and we practice and once I feel they are ready for the tool we can keep it in our writing center. I also love that it has practice pages that I use to put in their student portfolios.

  5. Kelly F. –

    I’ve used this for several years. Such a great way to introduce supplies.

  6. Tiffany M. –

    We loved making this toolbox at the beginning of the year. It helps guide the discussion on how we use our supplies correctly and they loved adding the new tool to their box.

  7. Brenna P. –

    This resource was so fun for my kiddos! Thank you for your hard work!

  8. jennifer B. –

  9. Moriah H. –

    Great beginning of the year project!

    I love all of the mini books and visuals included in this resource – the kids found the visuals and sorts really helpful.

  10. Laura M. –

    I love this cute resource to teach my kinders the correct way to use supplies. They liked filling in their “box” as we learned each one!

  11. Samantha J. –

    My students loved being able to review how to use our classroom supplies. They looked forward to reading the little story that went with each school supply item.

  12. Shoua V. –

    I love using this at the beginning of the school year with my first graders as I review how to properly use school materials. It is engaging as it allows the students to practice using the materials and at the end have a tool box to remind them of how to use these supplies appropriately.

  13. Suzanne Marr –

    My students loved using this resource! They learned a lot and had a lot of fun with it.

  14. Katydid Kindergarten –

    Another great resource! Thank you for a fun resource to use at the beginning of the school year!

  19. Andrea Stedeford –

    Loved this resource and the toolbox was a great idea and bulletin board display for my students!

  20. Melissa B. –

    This resource was so amazing during the first few weeks of school. My students were asking which school supply we were learning to use next! I love having the Powerpoints to work through with visuals. Then I used the sorts during whole group and we made anchor charts to post around the classroom. This was perfect for my firsties!
