First Day of School Coloring Sheets, 32 printable pages of friendly classroom supplies that need nothing more than a printer and a box of crayons. Every design sits on its own page in clean black line art.

School objects gather together on each sheet, and all of them have faces. A backpack with a folded top flap and a clasp. A crayon with its paper wrapper drawn in. A pencil, sharpened, standing tall. A spiral notepad where the wire binding is drawn coil by coil along the top edge. A triangular set square with hatch marks down one side. An apple with a leaf, a star with a small smile, and daisies with rounded petals. The words BACK TO SCHOOL sit in fat hollow letters, with a tiny flower resting on top of the B. Wavy lines and loose dots run through the space between objects, so there is always another small area to fill.

• Object naming happens as students identify each supply before coloring it.
• • Steady hand movement develops along the coil of the notepad and the pencil tip.
• • Confidence builds early in the year through a task with no wrong answer.
• • Color awareness grows when a child decides how to make each supply look different.
• • Settled behavior follows when the room has one shared quiet activity.

• Hand out on day one while you learn names and check the roll.
• • Use as a bridge activity between orientation sessions.
• • Print for meet the teacher night so children have a table task.
• • Add to a first week homework folder.
• • Leave with a substitute during the opening weeks.
