End-of-Year Bingo
Use a morning meeting at the end of the year to play bingo. If you did a class bingo game at the start of the year, ask students if it was easier to complete now that they know one another.

My Memories
Capture memories of the school year with this writing sheet. To get the most out of it, assign the worksheet a week before the end of school and give students time to think about each response. Then, they can use their answers to create an end-of-year video or share during morning meeting.

Younger students can have fun with this fill-in-the-blank game as a class, and older students can work in pairs to create silly stories.

How To Use the Last-Day-of-School Printables

Morning meeting: Choose an activity-a-day to wrap up the year in your morning meeting.
Helping students transition: Some students have a hard time transitioning from the structure of school to an unstructured summer. Use these worksheets to help them make that leap.
