Here are the activities that we will be working on...
Since our paper bag poetry books were so super simple and since the kids LOVED them so much, I had an idea to create an end of the year keepsake...paper bag style. Love that paper bags are so stinkin' cheap!
All you need are paper bags {lunch sacks....not grocery bags} and dollar store stickers to help your kiddos make these little scrapbook{ish} memories.
Then, we will also be adding to our time capsules for the year. End of the year is the perfect time to bundle all of your memories up into one place for safe keeping. I have included time capsule contracts, poems, and much, much more to get you going.
Along with these two activities, we will also work on several end of year writing and craftivities...just to end the year with a bang!
We will be planning for a great summer ahead...
And...my favorite...letters to next year's kiddos. I always display these on our "Welcome Back" night for my newbies to read {well..until I looped!}. This helps your kiddos get a glimpse into what is ahead in the new year. Plus, it adds a little spirit to those empty walls at the beginning of the year.
Hopefully these activities will keep my summer hungry kiddos busy after testing.

Have a great weekend!
Wow Hope-I LOVE your writing resources at TPT. I put several on my wish list to purchase soon for next year (I am going to use them in 5-6th grade resource English). Next year I will be teaching resource English for grades 5-9. Thank you for creating these great activities! Heather
