Several years ago, I transitioned from a stressful desk job to being to a stay at home mom.

I love homeschooling. It’s been the means of so much joy in my life, and I can’t imagine the last 23 years without the fun of reading aloud with my children, making crafts together, field trips, nature walks, painting, writing, and yes, even math. I’ve learned so much through the years, but a few si

As a mom of 3 girls, one of my strongest hopes is that my kids grow up to be close friends. I want them to love each other deeply, confide in each other, and know that they have built-in BFFs for whatever life might throw at them. The problem is, they fight all the time! After contemplating how my personal behavior might be contributing to the problem, I decided to STOP doing some things to help cultivate strong relationships between my girls. And it's made a huge difference!

This questionnaire is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE for the first day of school! It helps me to get to know students right away- their likes/dislikes, preferred names/pronouns, and their perceptions about themselves. I use the information on this questionnaire throughout the year- when I am making positive phone calls home, when I am choosing a soundtrack for independent work time, and when I want to connect with students and build personal relationships- the kids who agree with my favorite candy or TV show will be positively affirmed that they have good taste! This Resource Includes: A Student Handout with the following sections: The Basics Family All About You Favorites Academics Future Self Perception Some Final Things A Helpful Page of teacher instructions and tips for implementation! I have made this resource fillable so you can adjust the questions within the sections to your classroom- maybe your district doesn't permit you to ask certain questions or you don't want to know your students' social media information- everything can be adjusted to your liking. Please note- the category headings are not editable. I hope you find this resource as useful for your classroom as I do!
