Another school year is wrapping up and it's important to 'reflect' on our year. What were your biggest successes? Challenges? Student achievements? Personal achievements? I could go on...
As teachers, we seem to reflect on our students, our lessons, and even ourselves. Last year, I had my students reflect on the school year. I always do a 'Memory Book' where the students get to document their 'favorites' and have a special keepsake from their First Grade year, but I decided to have my students 'reflect' on different aspects of our school year. It was such a fun activity that I expanded it and we did a 'Daily Reflection' for the last 10 days of school! Each day, we reflected and shared and shared some more. It was interesting to hear what my students remembered and cherished. It also made me realize that most students 'remember' little things that we may not think are so important, but they are!
You can grab this Freebie in my TpT Store: End of the Year Reflections
If you download, please consider leaving feedback~it only takes a minute!
To use this product, just print the Reflection prompt(s) you like and the reflection writing sheet (to photocopy). Post a prompt on your board (as your boards are looking empty at the end of the year!). Give each student a 'refection sheet' or you could just have students reflect on a sticky note and stick it next to the prompt! Enjoy!
With the end of the school year, I hope you have time to reflect on your students and yourself as a teacher. I think we can learn a lot about ourselves and our teaching.
