Today you'll find two seasonal resources that will help you do just that.
From Brain Waves Instruction: End of Year Reflection & Infographic
As the calendar year draws to a close, engage your students with this fun and creative Personal Reflection and Infographic Activity. First, students will complete a personal reflection about their year - including lessons they have learned, significant events, memorable moments, accomplishments, favorites, and even set goals for the next year. Then, students will complete an infographic template to present their reflection information quickly and clearly. The infographic is a fun and engaging way for students to educate and inform others about their year. This End of Year Activity is the perfect way for students to reflect on their lives and discover how to effectively use and read infographics.
