Since I only saw them twice a week, I asked them to share what they enjoyed learning the best that year and what they did not enjoy : so it was beneficial for me each year to plan music classes.
At other times, I did the activity as you did and had them write about each other and we sat in a circle and passed their sheets around that I had prepared with their names in the middle in Calligraphy…they really did love this!
It was a great way to finish our music classes for the year and before they graduated Elementary school!

Each student creates their own text box or inserts their own image or shape. They can get creative

Do I create one large text box for everyone? Or does each child create their own text box?

Hi Lucia! I actually used a paper cutout of a start. I traced it and cut out on yellow tag board. Hope that helps!

You mention you have a letter you sent with your goodbye to the students. What does this look like? Do you have one for parents?
