I love giving gifts at the end of the year! And these little tokens of affection don’t have to be expensive either. End of year gifts helps solidify the concept of community and creates a tangible link between me and my kiddos. And, who knows, maybe they’ll keep these little mementos and remember someday when they’re grown adults headed off to college. That’s the point of becoming a teacher right? Making a difference! Here are a few ideas on end of year gifts for students….
Two gift idea for the kiddos:
1. Wordles for End of Year Gifts for Students
These wordles are free to make. The frames are $1 from the Dollar Tree. Making a unique one for each kid really makes them feel special. One idea to try- have the students write one or two adjectives about each of the kids in the class, then use those adjectives in their Wordle!
$1 document holder
2. Picture Frames
The pictures were printed from my printer at home. If printed at a store, it costs about $5. The frames are from the Dollar Tree for $1! It isn’t the fanciest thing, but the kids love that they have a forever memory of their teacher! End of year gifts for students don’t have to be over the top.
