3 End of the Year Activities
Below are 3 end of the year activities for elementary teachers.
1. Read Alouds
Read alouds are a great way to celebrate the end of the year. Your students will enjoy listening to the timely stories, discussing them, and reflecting on the school year. Some examples of quality books for this time of year are Mrs. Spitzer’s Garden, Lizzie and the Last Day of School, and Last Day Blues. Check out this full list of end of the school year books!
