It can be a challenge to keep going at the end of the year for teachers and students, but these stations provide an easy activity to keep students working through the end of the year.

6 Stations - color (PPT and PDF)
Google Slide version of Stations
End of Year Survey - Google Form and Printable
Station 1: Favorite Memory - Students are asked to share about their favorite memory from the school year. They can choose to add images and be creative as they like.
Station 2: Best Book - Students are asked to share their favorite read from the school year. They are also asked to insert a cover image or create a new cover for the book and write a recommendation.
Station 3: End of Year Survey - There are two versions (Google Form and Printable). Students are asked 5-7 questions to help them reflect and provide feedback.
Station 4: Proudest Moment - It’s time to celebrate because the students are asked to share their proudest moment or biggest accomplishment from the school year.
Station 5: Goal for Next Year - Time to take what happened this year and make goals for the upcoming school year. A SMART goal planning sheet is included in all versions.
Station 6: Note to Teacher - Such a sweet way for students to show gratitude for their teachers.
Bonus: End of Year One Pager - A bonus for the classes who are strapped for time or don’t want to do stations. This is one page that asks the same questions as the stations. Quick and simple for the win!
