Description
This pack includes everything that you need as you prepare for your maternity leave:
*An original book that I created, “What to Expect When My Teacher is Expecting,” to help you open a discussion with your students about maternity leave. I laminated and bound this book to share with my students.
*Word scramble with a secret message: Your teacher is having a baby! To announce pregnancy to the class.
*A parent volunteer form to invite parents to help out in your classroom and a form to send home for parent helpers.
*Making predictions activity-students can make predictions about the baby’s name, sex, weight, length and then collect the data using tally marks and graph the class data.
*Writing activity-“The Story of Me.” Students will write about the day they were born.
*Editable substitute handbook with everything you need for your sub: lesson planning pages, calendars, student information, passwords, content area information, birthdays, student information, and much more!
*Binder covers and spines
*Editable letter to parents
*Personal to do list to stay organized before your leave.
*Words of advice from your students
*Bulletin board letters for display
Over 100 pages to help keep you organized and keep your students involved in this exciting time in your life! I hope that it is helpful as you prepare for your maternity leave.

This was a great start for me to plan my maternity leave and leave my long term sub with all the things I could possibly need to share. I was even able to make it work as a pull out resource teacher, just had to get creative with some things. Cute graphics and lots of options.

This has been very helpful. I am prepping to go on to maternity leave so it has fun activities for the kids but also has a great letter to parents to let them know what is going to be going on in the classroom after I leave.
