Gr 5-8 Last Week of School Activities: Projects, Games, and Reflection

Do you need a few new activities for the last week of school in your intermediate or middle school class? I've got you covered with fun games, review activities, and worksheets that will keep your kids thinking and collaborating while having a blast!

• This ready-to-go bundle will keep your students in grades 5-8 occupied and learning for many work periods!

1) Vacation Math Project: Students will create a budget and plan a summer vacation to a destination of their choice, all while using lots of math skills with decimal operations. There is also an extra word problem worksheet about vacations (time zones, suitcase weight, distance, speed) included!

2) End of Year Written Reflection: Students answer five reflective prompts about their school year and decide which emojis best describe their experiences- a great keepsake for the year!

3) End of Year Review Projects: Get your students to teach each other key topics they have learned throughout year. Pairs or small groups create a brief video, lesson, or handout to present to the class to review science, social studies, or math topics that you assign. Students will need several work periods to prepare their lessons and at least one period to present them all to one another!

4) Word Puzzles: There are 5 different word puzzles that use logic, problem solving, and trial and error to solve. These could be great partner or small group activities.

I have also included my popular Grocery Game as a FREEBIE. My students absolutely love playing this whole-class decimal operations game!
