Remember When…
This school year was fantastic! There are so many wonderful memories to cherish. So many in fact, I may have forgotten them! I asked my students to place their heads down on their desk and visualize the year from beginning to end. They brainstormed a few of their favorite moments from this year and chose their #1 memory. We created a “Remember When” bulletin board highlighting our favorite events. Students described the memory and added a corresponding illustration.
Below are some examples of events students will remember:
I agree with my students that those were some wonderful moments. I will treasure the celebrations, field trips, fundraisers, and in-class rewards. However, my most favorite memory to cherish is the closeness of my class. I realize this is special and may never happen with another class. I will always fondly think, “Remember when…I had the pleasure of having the best year with my favorite class in 2012!”
What events will you remember from this school year? What would your students say?
