Hi! Just had to share some FUN for the end of the school year. Whether this school year ends in May or sometime in June, the last week of the school year is coming. So, let's end with a WRAP PARTY! Here are some ideas for having FUN!
No WRAP PARTY TIME is complete without a read aloud. .Last Day Blues (Mrs. Harwell’s Class Adventures) by Julie Danneberg (Charlesbridge) While students think about how much their teacher will miss them over the summer, there are some surprises about Mrs. Hartwell’s summer fun. What surprising things can your Ss think up for you to do this summer to keep from missing them?
Do Not Bring Your Dragon to the Last Day of School by Julie Gassman (Capstone) This is the fifth in this energy-packed, fun series. What could happen? And what does happen?
And, of course, enjoy sharing reading some of my newest books.
Now for MORE FUN!
French schools consider lunch a part of the curriculum. Students are expected to learn about food, where it comes from, and have the correct manners while eating it. Watch Kids Trying Hot Dogs as they are enjoyed in different states.
How do your Ss like their hot dogs? Have them share some ideas. You could list the top 3 and vote for the most popular.
For a little more hot dog fun, watch this history of that popular food.
NOW, race ahead to some
more discovery FUN.
Bangladesh schools experience seasonal flooding which can be a problem. So, they have created over 100 boat schools equipped with modern technology and powered by solar panels. And when schools don’t float to you, getting to school can be REALLY CHALLENGING. Watch how some students travel to and from school.
Encourage your Ss to discuss which of these they rate MOST CHALLENGING! And MOST FUN!
People aren’t the only ones that go to school. Orangutan Jungle School is great. Why is this school important? Watch and decide.
Now, visit this site for some great WRAP PARTY TIME! Activity ideas. I especially liked the Write and Pass activity and the Reflect Through Ice Cream activity
Never miss a chance to sing and dance. Join CELEBRATE A GREAT SCHOOL YEAR
And now till next school year...
I'm looking forward to all
the In-Person and Virtual Visits!
