I found this idea from Kelly Findsen and created my own based on my class.
L is for Letter Day:
We created a book for the students next year by each child writing down what they think the next class will like.
I found this idea on Pinterest and it led me to this page. I am excited to use this book at the start of Kindergarten next year.
M is for Marshmallow Madness Day:
We built structures out of marshmallows and toothpicks.
N is for Number Day:
We had fun playing many number games.
I blogged about these earlier this year. I love this entire "poking" set. It is wonderful for self-checking and working on both language and math skills. It is from FlapJack Educational Resources.
The children love completing the 100 board and have developed many strategies.
I made this game up for number day. I found four different coloured dice and had the children roll at once. Then the colour with the highest number got a point. They played until someone had 10 points. They loved this game and requested it often after this.
We played "battle" or "war" using the Power of Ten cards.

We went outside and completed an obstacle course.
P is for Picnic Day:
We went to the park and had a picnic.

T is for Teddy Bear Day:
We brought our favourite teddy bears and created pictures using construction paper.
I got this idea from Sassy Dealz
U is for Under the Sea Day:
We created an ocean scene and my mom came to class. We also had our graduation that night.
We painted the ocean background and once it dried we traced an ocean scene. Next time we will colour them in with crayons or oil pastels. We tried using black markers but the paint started to ruin the markers.

We watched "The Lorax" and discussed why trees are important.

We had a fun day with water. We had a water relay and played with water balloons. It was a fun morning!

I got this idea from Adventures of Room 129.
Y is for Year End Clean Up Day:
We finished all of our projects and cleaned up the room.
Z is for Zip Up and Zoom Out of School Day:
We played some relay games and talked about what we are going to do this summer. I handed out report cards and last day of school photos. We laughed and cried and had a great last day of school!
They had to fan tissue paper fish into the trap.
They had to blow a cup to the other side of the table.
They had vaseline on their noses and had to transfer as many cotton balls to the paper plates in 30 seconds.
They had to wiggle a cookie from their forehead to their mouth by just scrunching their face.
Two parents brought the class pizza for a last day treat. Thank you!
I got the ideas for the relays from Tunstall's Teaching Tidbits.
HAVE A FUN AND SAFE SUMMER!!
