This week, the Hardworking Journalists honored the closing of the school year with a celebration of some of their favorite things! The class had generated a list of some of their favorite games that they wished to play, so we took to the neighboring park for a snack break and some fun!
We played many games, including Sharks and Minnows, Seaweed Tag, Fastest Tagger in the West...
Red Light, Green Light
and Duck, Duck, Goose!
Some friends also brought in their favorite games to share with the class, so we did Games/Relax and Reading Switch during the afternoon.
We continued the festivities on the last day of school with even more favorite games and books from home, as well as an ongoing slideshow of the memories captured on film throughout the year.
As a gift from me, I invited friends to select one picture from this photo collage for them to take home and keep.
I also gave out a Thank You card for all of the great memories we had together, as well as a handmade paperback book for them to write all of their adventures and stories in. When they come back to school for 1st Grade, I look forward to reading them!
Have a great summer!
Love, Gaby
