School starts for us next week and I wanted to make something for those of us with younger kids. If you are tired of your kid answering “fine” when you ask about their day, then hopefully these school notes will help them to open up a bit more!
My son is not a talker when it comes to things that happen at school, but if you ask him about some kind of video game, he won’t stop talking. Typical boy I think. I designed these notes to try to get him to tell me more about his day.
Now that his little sister is also going to school, I’m sure I’ll learn more about what’s happening at school. She doesn’t need ANY prompting to talk about her day. ha!
Look at the genius idea a reader came up with for her kids! Athena spray painted frames, inserted the school notes and is using a dry erase marker each day. Thanks for sending this to me Athena, I love this idea.

I love this! Thanks so much for sharing!
Cool idea. This can probably be posted somewhere in the kitchen and have your kids sign them when they reach home. Nice!
Love these. As a special education teacher, I am going to use them with some of my students for home/school communication.
Absolutely will use this for our first year book.thanks for the inspiration.
Cute idea to get the younger elementary kids to share how their day at school went. Also, another opportunity to practice their writing skills.
