End of the School Year Party Ideas!

As I was getting ready to end the year, I was trying to think of just the right things to give my students, some of whom I've taught for two years.  I decided to purchase autograph dogs from Oriental Trading.
...Of course the autograph dogs were a HIT!  My kids walked around and got everyone's signatures...they were ecstatic!  It was so special to them!

Not long after that, Oriental Trading contacted me and asked if I would like to try out some of their products for the end of the year.  BINGO!  I chose things that I knew my students would love and have fun playing with during our End Of the Year Bash!  

I was able to get the medals which my kids wore all day and also stickers that say "I'm Going to 2nd Grade!"

We used Lyndsey's (A Year of Many Firsts) End of the Year Memory Books and then I stamped them with the 'Second Grade Quality' stamp that I won last year from Maria (Kinder-Craze).

It was no surprise that my kids had the BEST time with the beach balls...they are medium sized, so just big enough to use safely in class and out on the playground for volleyball!

We looked SO COOL in our shades!

I hope this gave you some ideas for your end of the year party!

We are so excited to be "graduating" from first grade!  I am going to miss ALL these kids SO much!!
