📚 Memory-Making Activities

The last days of school are such a special time to slow down a bit and let students look back on their year. They love talking about their favorite moments, their friends and everything they’ve learned.

This All About Me booklet is a freebie you can use to capture those memories. Students can reflect, draw and share about their year, then take it home as a keepsake.

Start this All About Me booklet on the first day of school and have students complete it again at the end of the year. Then compare the two to see all of their growth throughout the year, a meaningful keepsake to send home!

Hands-on crafts are perfect for keeping students focused while still celebrating the year. This summer vacation suitcase craft freebie gives students the opportunity to reflect on their summer plans or favorite memories through drawing and writing. Students color, cut, assemble and complete a writing prompt inside the suitcase.

The templates include:
🌈 Colored and B&W versions
