End of the School Year Ideas

End of School Year Celebration…What do you do? 

Do you create a Memory Book?

Hang a Special Banner?

Take a Special Picture?

Host a Party?

Share a Special Snack?

If you check out Pinterest you will see there are so many fun end of the year ideas, truth be told I didn’t do hardly any of these with my oldest so I’m always trying to balance things out.

I think I’m in shock that I now have a Second Grader at my house!  She’s only 6 and is going to the 2nd grade and truth be told will be doing 3rd grade work. My son is a junior now in college in an interternship. And I’m scheduling our trip for my high school reunion this summer, no one is counting right?

There are only 18 Summers in your Child’s Childhood… How many do you have left?  How will you spend them?

Where did the year go?

I can look back at our After School Activity List and clearly see how many things we fit into the year but I’m still wondering how it passed so quickly. Have you made a plan for your summer yet?  

We will again create a PLAY MAKE LEARN and GO list for our Summer Bucket.  I’m curious to see how hers will change from last  year.

Are you prepared for Summer Break?  Did you make your Summer Learning Station with your kids yet?

Have you printed your Lists for your Summer Learning Board ?  

Have you given your Teacher their End of Year Gift?

Did you submit your End of School Year Placement Letter?

What are you doing or have you done for the End of the School Year?
