Instant Personal Poster Sets: Read All About Me! : 30 Big, Write-And-Read Learning Posters Ready for Kids to Personalize & Display With Pride!

I loved sending these home with my students the first week of school. Not only does this help me learn a little bit more about my class but it also gives the family an opportunity to spend some time together. Great family activity!

Quick shipping and exactly what I hoped for.

I have been using these All About Me posters for years! I just purchased a new set to get ready for the next school year. It comes with a teacher's guide and a sample, but I am a creature of habit and use them the same way every year.I teach fourth grade, and I have a corner of the classroom dedicated as a Student Corner. This is where the kids can post things they are proud of, either school-related or not. I have an area for this poster, with a bulletin board border around it. I start the year off with a poster about myself on there. It is up there for Meet the Teacher, as well as the first week of school. The kids love reading it and learning more about their teacher!Towards the end of the first week of school, I assign a student to be the first featured student of the year. I give them the poster to take home, and they have several days to complete it and bring it back to school. Then their poster takes the place of mine as the student feature. Then again, in another week or so, I assign another student to take a blank poster home, and the cycle repeats until every student has had a chance to fill out a poster and be the featured student. When their poster comes down, I give it to them to take home.It is always exciting when a new poster goes up. I usually have a crowd of students standing there reading it, learning more about their classmate. The featured classmate feels special for that week, as he/she usually gets comments from the other kids or questions.I love the open-ended questions on this. While some are straight-forward like what grade they are in and when their birthday is, questions like "I am a star because....." or "I show others I care by...." really has the students looking within themselves and being able to brag on themselves a bit. It's really special. Students who are super-creative may color theirs and even decorate, but that's not required for those kids who have no interest in that. For the "This is a picture of me" section, some students attach an actual photo, while others draw a picture of themselves. They can really personalize it however they'd like.You get 30 blank posters in the package, as well as a teacher's guide and a sample. It has worked really well for me in the years I've been using it.

Kids loved using this poster to introduce themselves.It was easy for them to do, present, and was useful for discussion over how we treat others. I have used this in previous years and would use it again.

I use this every year for the first week of school! The kids enjoy it and it makes it easy to know their likes and dislikes.
