End of Year Gifts for Students

End of year student gifts

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….

Word Maps for End of Year Gifts for Students

These word maps 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 map!
