This is a fun activity to get the kids thinking about what to expect in their upcoming summer months. I have some postcards I’ve collected, and the kids use these as examples of different kinds of creativity you can use to design a postcard. They draw whatever they want on the front, and on the back, they can tell you about their favorite part of the school year, whatever they want. This is a fun way to either reteach and/or assess that they remember the parts of a simple letter. They can mail it to you at the school over the summer, OR you can mail it to them over the summer.

Tie-dyeing with sharpie markers. Summer Song appeals to a wide audience of young readers, many who may be facing difficult issues themselves. Because the plot deals realistically about a fractured family and a teen’s struggle for control, students can better grasp what Etta May herself finally comes to understand: while we cannot control life, we can affect parts of it. Bits of humor lighten what could be a heavy tone as it asks readers to think about family, separation, and loss. The student will be able to identify matter as a liquid, solid, or gas. You can make these cute little toy boats in just a few minutes. They are great for preschoolers and kindergartners to practice cutting with scissors, drawing, and molding clay. |
