Community Helpers Write the Room: Vocabulary Cards and Writing Prompts PreK-1

Thursday, March 15, 2018

Community helpers units are better when kids are up and moving. Your students hunt for 12 vocabulary cards, then write about the helpers in their town.

This community helpers write the room gets your students up with a clipboard, hunting for 12 community helper vocabulary cards around the room. Back at their seats, they use the words in recording sheets and writing prompts. Pair it with a good read aloud and you have a full day of community helper writing, with no craft to prep.

Hey there!

I'm Jessica, a teacher and a mom of 4. I started making resources for my own Pre-K to 1st grade kiddos back in 2012, and Teachers Follow Teachers grew from there.

Everything here is built for real classrooms: easy to prep, easy to teach, and kind to your evenings. Pull up a chair and grab what helps.
