The Viral Verb Song on TikTok

My following rapidly grew, scaling over 30,000 in a matter of weeks. It’s been an honoring and humbling experience to say the least! This Viral Verb Song has received so much love. Today I’m proud to offer it to you in a new way.

End of Year Awards for Elementary Students

Hands down, my favorite Last Day of School tradition is our End of Year Awards Ceremony. I lay out the red (butcher paper) carpet, turn on the disco lights, cue the Hollywood Award Show music, and grab my microphone for announcing each student’s name. It’s a massive hit.

My KEY to keeping lessons organized! 🔑 Comment My KEY to keeping lessons organized! 🔑 Comment “scope” to get this FREE! 👏🏽

My first school didn’t provide a guide of any kind for moving through lessons throughout the year. It got frustrating to remember how we did things the year before and to always have to reference curriculum maps for multiple subjects. 

SO, I finally sat down at the end of one school year (while everything was fresh on my mind!) and made my own template! 

This was a game changer for me and my teammates! Linking in the slides we used leveled up this template even more. 

I’m including a free sample from my years teaching 2nd grade + blank templates for you to enjoy! 🥰 Hope you love using it!
