End of the Year Slideshow Template | Volunteer Appreciation Slideshow | Kindness

This YEAR-LONG bundle currently includes 11 separate Collaborative Activities in Google Slides to use with your students during the year. What are collaborative digital activities? In these products, students all work in ONE Google Slides presentation to share what they're thankful for, poetry, sign autographs, New Year's Resolutions, practice self-love and kindness, celebrate volunteers, memories, and goals, as well as give feedback to their friends and build classroom community.

Having students work in ONE presentation makes sharing student work much easier, not to mention, more fun! Share the links in Google Classroom and you're ready to go.

The 12 Activities Include:

★ New Year's Resolutions Activity in Google

Students set health, kindness, and school goals for the new year.

★ Martin Luther King Jr. I Have a Dream + Can Take Action Activity in Google

Martin Luther King Jr. did more than just have a dream. He took action, too! Students tell what their dream is, give reasons and facts behind the issue, discuss ways to take action, and more!

★ Kindness Activities in Google

Use this anytime during the year or during the Great Kindness Challenge. Students will set personal kindness goals, give evidence of characters who display kindness, create a class kindness collage, design posters to promote kindness around the school, and more!

★ Valentine's Day Self-Love and Mindfulness Activity in Google

A SELF-LOVE and mindfulness activity. Students will customize a slide recognizing what makes them happy, people who make them feel loved, how they’re helpful to others, which activity makes they feel calm, and more. When they’re finished with their own slide, they can view and comment on each other's slides with positive compliments. Your students are sure to come out of this activity with new love and appreciation for themselves. ♥

★ Volunteer Appreciation Slideshow in Google

Create a slideshow for your classroom volunteers this year. Students customize slides to thank each volunteer and tell what the class and teachers loved about them. Project the slideshow at a volunteer tea, end of the year celebration, or print the slides for a thank you bulletin board.

★ Host a Class Poetry Party

Celebrate student writing with your class and families. Each student customizes a
slide with their favorite poem and images. Project the slide in-class or virtually as
students share their poems. Use the digital invites to invite families. Make it a real
party with popcorn!

★ Create Digital Earth Day Posters

Celebrate Earth Day by having students create digital posters focused around an
issue affecting the Earth! Students tell about the issue, support it with facts, insert
a video to learn more and even come up with a hashtag. After, have students
comment on each other's slides and even send the presentation to another class
or parents to continue the Earth Day discussions.

★ Digital Autograph Party

Host your own Digital Autograph Signing Party for your end of the year activities!
Students will all work in ONE Google Slides presentation to sign each other's
autograph pages at the end of the year. Students can print their autograph page
after the party is over and stick it in their yearbook, or they can keep a copy in their
Google Drive as a memory!

★ End of the Year Memory Slideshow in Google

Create an end of the year slideshow where students reflect on their favorite
memories and what they're most proud of. Perfect to project during your Open
House or End of the Year celebrations. Share with families who aren't able to join

in the classroom too! Use it again next year.

★ Top 5 Picks of Summer in Google

Students will showcase their top 5 things they did during over summer using text
and images.
