End of Year Activities

I only have 10 1/2 more days of school.  Crazy to think how fast the year flew by!  

If your class is anything like mine they are getting a little restless.  As far as behavior goes, I started using Class Dojo.



Once the kids here the chime that someone has earned a point, you could hear a pin drop.  At the end of the day, I give them Star Dollars for how many points they've earned.

I don't think I'd use Class Dojo all year long because I'm constantly turning on and off my TV.  I need something extra up my sleeve for that last month.

As far as activities go, I need something quick, easy and engaging.  I'm known for my crafts (Thanks TpT!).  I want to show you some of the things we've done in the last week and will do the last few days.  


We are making s'mores tomorrow to go along with our camping theme.





Students write nouns on lemons and then make a pitcher of lemonade.


Students write adjectives on seeds.







You can find all of these items in my TpT store on sale through tonight!

Tell It To The President

The tattling situation has gotten a bit of out hand.  It's really the same few students and all they want me to do is tell the person exactly what they've already told me.

This idea isn't new, but I decided that they can go tell it to the President.

I pulled out a bin from my closest, printed out a picture of the President and whipped up these templates.


  
Consider it letter writing skills while also not driving the teacher crazy.  Tomorrow's our first official day - I'll let you know how it goes. ;)
