The end of the year is approaching! It may be a little harder to engage students, our brains may be overwhelmed by all there is still left to do, but, as teachers, we are still striving to plan thoughtful, creative lessons for our students to enjoy. We are here to help with that! Today we are sharing our favorite EOY resources. Keep reading and you will find Math resources, writing activities, fun certificates that your class can help with as well as some craftivities your students are sure to love. These are low-prep and high engagement resources that are perfect for the end of the year in elementary school classrooms.
Let’s start!
Camping Art Directed Drawing Bundle | Camper, Tent & Marshmallow | Writing
Students are going to love these camping art directed drawings! With three drawing options, students are going to feel like real-life campers by the end of this activity. There are so many ways you can extend this into a full “camping” day or just have a fun “camping” morning or afternoon. This is a super flexible option for teachers that truly allows teachers in grades K thru 8 make it work for where their students are at. Definitely worth checking out!
First and Last Day of School Pages | Favorites | Photo Page
Even if you didn’t do a “first day of school” page, this resource is worth grabbing for students to fill out at the end of the year. We promise this will be a keepsake that both family and students treasure and find joy looking back on! You can print a picture out or have them draw themselves and the rest is pretty easy to follow prompts. A must-do for the end of the year!
EDITABLE End of Year Class Awards | Superlatives Graduation Diploma Certificates
This resource can be done completely by the teacher or you can have your students throw their ideas into the mix! Either way, it is a super fun way to close out the year. You can make basic “graduation” certificates or you (and/or your class) can get creative with the editable superlative class certificates. Depending on your class, these can be so fun for students at the end of the year!
Magic Math Bands | End of Year | Graduation Math Fact Practice | Paper Bracelets
If you haven’t tried these Magic Math Bands yet, now is the time! If you have tried them, you know kids adore being able to WEAR their Math out the door! These are exactly the low-prep, high engagement activities teachers need that last week of school. Grab this for an activity that students will love doing.
End of the Year Popsicle Craft and Writing
It doesn’t get cuter than this popsicle craft. We love making these into a bulletin board so you can do these a bit earlier if you want to enjoy it as an EOY bulletin board. Students love celebrating the memories they have made this year and you can even throw in a REAL popsicle as an extra special treat to commemorate your amazing year.
