Instead of a traditional memory book have students make a flip book to record their memories of the year! It's fun and easy and makes a great writing activity. Find this flip book here.
If you are searching for a fun end of the year gift for your students grab some sunglasses like these, print the I Am A Reader tags and attach the tags to the glasses. Super easy and kids love sunglasses! These free tags are a part of our newsletter that you can find here. You can find sunglasses similar to these here.
For those of you still in school or if you teach summer school these ideas are for you!
