Imagine If You Were A Sloth – Writing Template for Kids

The Teach Starter office has gone sloth crazy! What’s not to love about these gorgeous creatures? In this fun craft and writing template – students have to imagine what they would do if they were a sloth. You’ll be surprised how engaged your students will be in their writing when they get to imagine what life would be like if they were a cute animal… like a sloth!

The best thing about this writing template is that it links in beautifully with the 2023 National Simultaneous Storytime storybook – The Speedy Sloth!

✂️ Give Them the (Safety) Scissors 

This template makes for a bonus cutting skills activity, depending on your students’ ages and abilities. 

With adult supervision, cutting skills help students work multiple muscle groups and their brains, plus:

• strengthen finger and hand muscles
• build dexterity and fine motor skills
• improve hand-eye coordination
• develop focus and attention.

And all of these skills are necessary to use a pencil and a fork; button a shirt and tie shoes; write, type and swipe.

Scissor skills are brain and muscle skills!
