Why Teachers Like You LOVE This Resource:
“A great way to wrap up the end of the year and have a keepsake for students. During the last couple weeks of school I gave them one page a day as their writing activity without letting them know it would become a memory book. I bound them together into a book and gave it to them on the last day. They were so surprised!”, - Jen M.
“This was such a fun end-of-year activity to do with my class! They enjoyed working on these and it was fun to read some of their responses.” - Courtney V.
