Collaborative Year-End Projects E Is for End of the Year The close of the school year means having students reflect on what they’ve learned, whether it’s through journaling, scrapbooking, drawing pictures, or making videos. Michelle Lundy, who teaches middle school social studies in Thomaston, Georgia, took a cue from the younger grades and asked her students to create alphabet books recounting the topics they’d studied that year. Stage a TV Contest Engage your students by letting them participate in a TV-like competition, similar to American Idol. Survive and Thrive Ask students to think about the things they wish they’d known or that they loved experiencing in their current grade. Stage a Service Project Enlist your students in supporting a local cause that is important to them, whether it’s collecting canned goods for a food pantry, pet food for an animal shelter, or books for a library or school in need. Create a Time Capsule Students love the idea of leaving a part of themselves behind for posterity. Go On the Hunt
Bingewatching YA Read- Alikes With all the ways to watch TV today including; on demand, DVR, and instant streaming it is possible to watch an entire series’ episodes back to back rather than in a serialized week to week format. This kind of watching has been dubbed “binge-watching.” Maybe when you hear this term, an image comes to mind of someone mindlessly watching hour after hour of TV whilst eating chips. As fun as that sounds, “binge-watching” can also mean focusing on just one show over the course of many days or weeks. As a reader the way I become immersed in the characters and world of a good book are a familiar, comforting feeling, and binge-watching a quality show can offer a similar (on-screen) experience. Here are some great YA read-alikes inspired by some of my binge-worthy favorites. Orange is the New Black – One of Netflix’s original binge-worthy series. Read-alikes: * Hole in my Life by Jack Gantos (2003 Printz Honor Book, Popular Paperback for Young Adult 2006 , 2003 Best Books for Young Adults).

They are all super inspiring and fun to see and share. which has amazing examples and inspiration like this one. kicked off #BookBentos at Van Meter with her students. We were so excited to not only do this project together, but to learn more about #BookBento too. We put together these slides to share with our students. First, we talked to them about what a Bento Box was and shared stories of eating sushi and other things out of these amazing little boxes that originate from Japan and other Asian countries. We explained to our students this is what we would be doing with our #BookBento project, but focusing on books we have read and the elements wrapped around the book and our feelings and reflections as readers. We then showed the 4th graders lots of examples from ones we found online and the @BookBento Instagram.
