Description

The Sailing Into Summer Reflection Activity is designed to help students look back on their school year and reflect on their favourite memories, key learnings, and aspirations for the future. This engaging end-of-year activity fosters self-awareness, celebrates student growth, and sets the tone for continued learning. Students complete boat-themed templates and share their reflections, creating a vibrant classroom display for the final days of school or as a welcoming visual for the incoming class.

Educational Benefits:
•    Promotes self-reflection and awareness.
•    Reinforces social-emotional learning by allowing students to identify and articulate their growth.
•    Encourages goal-setting for the upcoming year.

How to Use:
•    Distribute the Sailing Into Summer templates to students.
•    Guide students to fill out their templates with their favourite memory, a significant skill they learned, and an area for improvement next year.
•    Collect and display the completed templates on a bulletin board using titles such as "Anchors Aweigh - Our Year at Sea" or "Navigating Through Learning".
