  3. 2 Color the squares on the right so both halves match.
  4. 4 Your teacher turns into a cat for one day.

Teacher tip

Let kids share their story about the teacher who turns into something.

How to use it

  • Let kids keep unfinished pages in a folder to come back to.
  • Use the pages as a quiet activity for a sub day.
  • Use it as a center, an early finisher choice, an indoor recess activity or a sub day page.

Watch for

Pages that are always too easy or too hard. Pick the grade that fits the child.

Talk about it

  • What would you like to see on the next page?
  • What was the trickiest part? How did you get past it?
