May 18, 2015
Below is a compilation of resources we have curated from our archive here in EdTech and mLearning covering activities, printable, worksheets, lesson ideas and web tools to use for wrapping up the school year.

Digital activities and tools:

1- Memory Book
Here are some digital tools to help you and your students create memory books :
Use Google Docs or any other word editor that you and your students are familiar. We prefer Google Docs because it has an integrated feature that allows you to convert  documents into PDFs with a single click. Once converted you can then upload and turn your PDF into a nice looking book using one of these tools:
2- Creating posters
This is a good way for you and your students to highlight and capture those memorable events that took place in the class during the year.
3- Bulletin Boards
Use the tools below to invite students to contribute in creating a class board where everyone gets to share what they learned .
4-  Gather student Feedback
One important way to inform your teaching practice and informally assess your teaching is to ask students to give you feedback and comments on your teaching strategy, how comprehensible your lessons were..etc. Here are some tools to use for this purpose:
5- Create digital portfolios
Invite your students to create portfolios to showcase what they have learned during the school year. They can, for instance, include their favorite writing pieces to document their  writing growth from the beginning of the year till the end.
6-Create a photo scrapbook
Students love scrapbooking and this could be a fun activity for them. Pick a tool from the list below and show them how they can use it to create a pic collage or photo scrapbook featuring pictures from previous field trips,  class events...etc
