FREE Back to School Task Boxes

Special Education Teachers, Are you ready to build your independent work library with back to school task boxes?

If you have been following me long, you know that it is my passion for students to have access to an independent work library. You can read all about setting one up here.

Independent work libraries are a HUGE part of helping your students become independent learners and creating a classroom environment that runs smoothly. It’s a win win for everyone because students are becoming more independent and teachers are freed up!

Download the Back to School 4 Pack of Task Boxes for Free here.

This task is differentiated, so you can match picture to picture, picture to word OR create two full leveled boxes for your independent work station.

This free four pack of task boxes also includes a back to school themed sort! These are great to use for the first week of school while your students are still building routines.

HOW TO STORE!

These task boxes can be easily stored in a small plastic bin, like the one linked here (affiliate link), or in a shoebox! It it quick and easy to prep and will last forever with the right lamination! (hint, you can find my favorite kind here- it’s not scotch.) (affiliate link) Get the task box labels seen above here.
