August Books Craft Bundle

If you are looking for crafts for the month of August and love ones that pair with books, this bundle is just what you need! This August Book Craft Bundle includes 3 crafts that pair nicely with some of my favorite back to school themed books:

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr.

The Crayon Box that Talked by Shane Derolf & Michael Letzig

The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn and Ruth E. Harper

What’s included in this pdf:

• A photograph of the craft activity
• Step-by-step directions
• Templates that can be copied directly onto colored cardstock or construction paper and then cut out by students. 
• Labeled templates that can be xeroxed onto cardstock, cut by the teacher, and then traced onto colored paper and cut by students. Labels will include the name of the pattern, the color to use, and how many of each pattern to cut (Ex: Body Cut 1 Red).
• Coloring templates (a separate pdf to send to your students for distance learning)

Here are some fun ways to use the craft:

• book study
• practicing fine motor skills
• bulletin boards
• door and hallway decorations
• small group station
• pair it with a worksheet, activity, or book
• reward or class party
