Age and Grade Levels for the Summer Word List Activity Pages

The Summer Words Language Arts Packet is great for students in 1st – 3rd grade. However, keeping in mind that many students have different needs and abilities, some pages may be too difficult for some first graders. Some pages may also be perfect for students in 4th – 5th grade.

How to Grab and Print The Summer Fun with Words: Summer Word List Games and Activities Printable Set

Of course, I think you should check out all of the resources that I have shared in this post since I think they will pair well with the printable packet. However, to find the printable, scroll toward the bottom of this post. Just under the terms of use section, you’ll find a graphic and a text link to grab the printable. The text link will say >>>> Grab The Free Summer Fun with Words Printable Set <<<<.

If you have any printing issues, I have some tips here that can help with a variety of issues that sometimes pop up because of different web browsers or updates.

I recommend printing this packet on regular white printer paper, as there are several pages where kids can color some of the pictures. There are also color versions of the pages, if you want color graphics. However, every page in this packet is available in black and white, which should help with printing costs.
