End of the Year gift

We all want to show our kids how proud we are and I personally like to do it in a simple and cheap way :)  This year I took an idea off Pinterest {the fish} and added my own ideas {the ball and slinky} in to get to the end product.   You will need Swedish Fish, 2 snack size Ziploc bags, one slinky and one ball per child.  I spent just under $20 for my own class. 

The ball and slinky go in one snack bag and the Swedish fish go in the other. Attach the two bags together with the paper below and a couple of staples. 

End of the Year kid gift....It's easy-peasy lemon squeezy! 

 

O-FISH-ally swimming on to bigger waters

My kids have only 12 days left and I only get to spend 10 with them :(  I am on the team to take the Core Curriculum standards and make them into a curriculum for our county....it's quite the job but another interesting facet to our teaching world.

Since my days are numbered and we aren't allowed to print anything (!) I created a one page document for the kids to remember each month that we spent together this year.  I made one for K, 1, and 2.

It's quick and easy!  I was also going to get some goldfish and swedish fish for them to snack on during this activity.  I hope you enjoy this time of reflection and are able to relax knowing you have a whole summer to refresh!!
