Achievement Certificates

For Kids

 

Motivate students with colorful math and reading achievement certificates. 

Celebrate learning to count from one-to-ten, or accomplishing a big job like reading a whole book, or learning to write the numbers 1-10 with an award certificate illustrated with adorable puppies  from Ten Little Puppies,  the popular wiggly-eyeball counting book by Jim & Marian Harris.

Each award certificate is easy to print and use, with ample space for filling in both the student’s and teacher’s names, before awarding to the student.

 


For easy math practice in counting from 1-10 and reading and writing numbers, be sure to check out puppy-themed number tracers, and circle-the-number worksheets. 


For light-hearted writing practice for younger students, print out some colorful sheets of lined writing paper (with puppy illustrations).   Or for older students, brighten the day with some friendly-puppy letter-writing stationery.

Remember to CELEBRATE ACHIEVEMENT!
