End the school year strong by creating a special keepsake memory book with your students. Remember all the fun memories and many accomplishments throughout the year by recording them in a book that kids create during their last weeks of school. Save time with this print-and-go memory book that is easy to print and done for you!
Come together as a class and discuss all the memories from the year. Have students create a memory book by filling in the pages you select. Each page focuses on only one theme, such as my classroom, my teacher, my top 10, etc. There are two cover options and multiple pages to choose from, so you can select which works best for your kids. Alternatively, kids can create a digital memory book on Google Slides or in Powerpoint with the digital version.
The memory book was created with kindergarten, first grade, and second grade kids in mind. Create the memory books together as a community-builing wrap-up activity during your social-emotional learning block, morning meetings, small group lessons, partner activities, and counselor lessons!
