End of Year Gift Ideas and FREE Tags!

Are you trying to put together some quick and easy end of year gifts?

Need a cute gift tag to attach to your gift?

I've got you covered.

Included in this freebie are gift tags for parent volunteers, classroom helpers, substitute teachers, staff or team members. Please click on the picture below to be taken to my TpT store to download.

But don't leave yet, here are ways I have used the sayings included on the tags in gifts I have given out in the past. 

[Note: They are not the same gift tags as the ones included in the product. Pictures are from years past]

ORANGE YOU GLAD IT'S ALMOST SUMMER!?

Grab anything ORANGE (lip gloss, gum, Sunkist drink, etc.) and attach the tag.

This is my go to last week gift for my team just to help get us through to the end!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR THYME AND HELP, IT MINT SO MUCH!

I went to Walmart and found pots, packages of Thyme and a package of mints. I glued ribbon around the pot and stuck everything inside. I used this as a gift for my parent volunteers and room moms.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELPING HANDS

In the past, I have attached a similar tag to a bottle of hand soap or sanitizer from Bath and Body Works and given it to my classroom volunteers who help out throughout the year. 

THANKS FOR ALWAYS GOING OUT OF YOUR WAY TO BE AN AMAZING SUB

You know there are those subs that make sub plans and being out that much easier.

Thank them for helping you out this year by attaching the tag to a subway gift card.

Happy gifting and end of the year!

Head Hunters Sight Word Game

If you follow me on Instagram, you saw me post this picture.

It's nearly the end of the year and we've learned all our sight words.

Here's a fun and easy way we practiced them!

We played a game I named "Head Hunters" to review our sight words.

It's super easy to make and did I mention it's loads of fun too!

To Make (Labels):

Type up sight words onto labels (I used Avery 5160 template in Word).

Print.

To Make (Recording Sheet):

Simply type up a class list with a blank space beside each student's name.

Print.

--------------------------------------------------------------

To Play:

Now that you have your supplies, stick one label to each students head.

Yes, stick it to their head!

{They may have thought I was crazy when I walked up with one on my head.}

#teachersplaygamestoo

Pass out recording sheet. Students will walk around and read the sight words on each classmates' head. They will read the word to person and then record it on their paper.

Once completed, they may take their sticker off and place it next to their name.

Here we are in action!

This game can be made to fit any list of words or any class size.

Happy word hunting!
