Jitter Glitter: Back to School FREEBIE











     Kindergarten is an incredible adventure filled with exciting activities and experiences. I assume that some of our students (and parents) are a bit nervous about the first day of kindergarten. Honestly, I am too. Every year, I have butterflies when I wake up for the first day of school! 

    I found this poem online a few weeks ago and thought it would be the perfect 'favor' to hand out at my Meet the Teacher event. 

The poem goes as follows:


The night before school is exciting and fun,
with so many things that just have to be done.

Your clothes are all ready, your backpack is, too.
And your classroom is waiting with fun things to do.

There are so many questions that go through your mind,
All types of thoughts, some of every kind.

The day before school, we all get the jitters down deep,
making it really hard for us to fall sleep.

So here is some jitter glitter; It’s really quite cool.
It’s something to help you be rested and ready for school.

Just sprinkle the glitter under your pillow in bed,
the night before school starts, when you lay down your head.

The  glitter will help you sleep through the night,
letting you wake up feeling fresh and bright.

I’ll sprinkle the glitter under my pillow, too.

And remember I can’t wait for school, so I can see you!

I attached my poem to a plastic bag filled with glitter, this way the student can simply put the bag under his pillow and avoid a mess (and angry parents). 





 See how Kinder Drama gets ready for meet the teacher!

  1. How sweet is this?!!! This could easily be used for pre-K classrooms, too! Our open house is coming up. I may use this idea, thanks so much for posting it :)
