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.

2nd & 3rd grade teachers, this is the year Writing changes for the better in your classroom! 🥰 I’ve poured so much love into these units (they are wayyy better than the originals I used in my classroom 😅) and I cannot wait for more of you to enjoy them!

Teach 1st grade? I’m considering making you units next! They would look different bc of the higher phonics and sentence building your students need. Tell me what you would want to see inside! 💕

If you teach 2nd or 3rd grade, this is for YOU!! 👏🏼👏🏼 Premade writing units for every month of the school year that covers every style of writing you need to teach! You and your students will look forward to writing (instead of dreading it or skipping it all together!!!)

Teach firsties? I’m thinking of making units for you next! They’d be different since phonics/building a sentence is your focus over the full process. Lmk what you’d want to see inside!
