What are the First Responders Thank You Cards?

⌄

A cover and 4 pages, one card per page, for a firefighter, police officer, paramedic and nurse. The front of each card says Thank You for keeping us safe! with a picture of the helper, and the inside has a Dear line, writing lines and a From line. Each page reads: Cut out the card. Fold it in half on the dotted line so the picture is on the front. Then turn the card over and write your message on the back.

Can I use the First Responders Thank You Cards at home and in the classroom?

⌄

Yes. We made it for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade community helpers, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

Which resources have an answer key?

⌄

The cause and effect cards, the hidden objects and I Spy pages and the Who Can Help? problem solving cards have an answer key. The rest are games, crafts, posters and templates.

Is there one download with many of these resources?

⌄

Yes. The Community Helpers Activity Pack gathers 15 Kindergarten to 2nd grade resources, from the job match and word search to flash cards, a wheel craft and posters, in one PDF.
