It feels like forever since I've last blogged {I think I said that last time I blogged!}! The end of the year is always such a hectic, crazy time and this year is no exception. I've been busy getting ready for our awards day and can now say it was a success. The kids and families loved it!
We started by decorating our tables {a little bulletin board paper the kids decorated} and then I put out their end of the year gifts {buckets of books} and their summer packs and memory books. We had super simple snacks and lemon water that my kids thought was so fancy for some reason! It's the little things! :)
Then came the awards. I used Reagan's candy awards again this year and the kids and families loved them! They are so much fun and make for big smiles!
I also used Gladys' awards this year and we loved them too. They are black and white, so it was perfect for prinitng on the bright paper I got {especially since ink is low at the end of the year!}.
All in all, it was a super fun day! Many tears were shed {especially during our video} and I am definitely going to miss my sweeties!
Now on to cleaning the room and getting organized for next year! It seems like every year I tell myself I'm not going to let things pile up and somehow they do! Hope your end of the year is/was great!!

Their summer packs included Hadar's Ready Made for First Grade, Lyndsey's Website Handout {Free!!} and a list of our first grade sight words. |
