Writing Prompts for May

10 pages.

I found this idea in various print forms on a variety of sites, so I'm not sure where the original idea came from.  However, instead of making an 8x10 print to frame, I thought it would be perfect to design some cards, bookmarks and magnets, which children could make in school for various holidays: Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, or Grandparent's Day.

There are 3 templates so you can use this for Mother's Day with a generic "You are 'berry' special" pattern, so students can give this to someone else, or make for Grandparents' Day.

2 pages.

Students write a sentence on each colored strip of why their mom/special person colors their world with love.

This is a versatile craftivity, as you can use the various templates for a Mother's Day or Father's Day gift, or something to make with grandparents for Grandparent's Day.  If you'd like to give your students an end-of-the-year gift, this is also relatively easy and inexpensive, and sure to become a keepsake.   This "craftivity" is a special FREEBIE in my TpT shop.  Click on the link to grab your copy today.

This Mother's Day card is sure to become a cherished keepsake.  Students draw a self-portrait on the poem circle and "hinge" the clock to the front of their picture.  Older students can complete the writing prompt and glue it to the back.
