Are you looking for an end of year activity that is quick, easy… and above all, FUN? An activity thathelps your students reflect on the year just passed, and look eagerly forward to the year ahead – without much fuss?
Look no further!
You’ve got all this and more in our super-cool template – theEnd of Year Snapshot Activity
You can’t let the end of the year come and go without allowing your students the time to sit back and review all they’ve learned, all they’ve done and how far they’ve come! So how do you fit yet another activity in amongst all the assessments, reports, assemblies and Christmas craft?
Read on to see just why this activity is a breath of fresh air – and the reasons why you should make it a staple for years to come!
End of Year Snapshots – Say Cheese with this End of Year Activity
Though it looks simple, this activity packs a big punch! Simple enough for students to do independently, yet involved enough that they can take their time to complete it. They can finish it in their own time, or even collaborate with their whole class!
Take a Snapshot of Student’s Personalities
Your students will love the opportunity toput their own twiston their activity. Simply give them the camera and photo template, and let their creative side loose!
Then, your students canrepresent their memorieswith drawings, anecdotes and simple words which mean so much.
Tailor it to Suit Your Class
Not only does theEnd of Year Snapshotresource come with some great suggestions for memories, but it also has a blank page for you totailor to your class’s unique experiences.
Some suggestions to put on this page may be:
- My biggest challenge this year…
- The best lunch food this year…
- The funniest moment from this year…
- I’ll never forget when…
你拍照你的课在整个year? You can even get your students to take a look back at photos taken throughout the year and add some extra-special ones to their snapshot!
Create a Snapshot Display
Once your class has created their personalisedEnd of Year Snapshots, why not put them up on display for the last few days of the term?
This is a great way to help your students think about what they are saying goodbye to as they near the holidays!
If you don’t have any wall-space left in your classroom (and it’s no surprise after a year of hard work!) then create a snapshot mobile!
