End of Kinder made EASY!

Hi there and happy almost end of the year! A couple summers ago I created a program called KinderSurvival! This program was developed to help teachers survive that beginning of the year crazy! After teachers used KinderSurvival for a smooth start… they asked for an end of  the year squeal and KinderSurvived was born!

kindergarten end of year

KinderSurvived is an end-of-year program designed to assist teachers in surviving their last month of kindergarten. We know that there is so much that goes into wrapping up the end-of-year. This program was designed by a teacher for a teacher in hopes that all necessary material could be found in one document. The program consists of a week long close read, math review, phonics review, end-of-year assessments, summer learning extension, end-of-year rotation fun, custom written books, memory book, promoted to first grade awards, character awards and MORE!

What is included?

Here is the SHORT version!

– 5 custom written books– EOY ELA assessment– EOY Math assessment– EOY assessment answer guides– EOY assessment parent notes/checklists– Independent booklets for students during assessment time– 5 days of EOY Close Read (lesson plans, poem, craft, assessment, printables)– 5 days of EOY Math Review (lesson plans, centers, printables)– 5 days of EOY ELA Review (lesson plans, centers, printables)– 20 EOY Character Awards– 20 EOY “Promoted to First Grade” Awards– EOY Kindergarten Memory Book (non kindergarten version included)– Summer Learning Fridge Tear-Off Tasks (2 ELA, 2 Math)– EOY gift tags (5 versions)– EOY Writing & Craft– EOY Grade-Level Rotations (flamingo themed)– EOY Bulletin Board Craft– EOY Friendship activity – EOY “Week of Friendship” themed activities

If you have extra time… you can watch the video below! I SHOW you each and every one of the activities included!
