On the first day of school, I always have the stud On the first day of school, I always have the students draw a self-portrait. I put a sticky note on the right side to block it off, so the students donโ€™t draw on that side. I simply ask them to draw a picture of themselvesโ€ฆ. No prompting or modeling. They also write their name along the bottom.

Then, on the last day of schoolโ€ฆ okay, sometime during the last week, because we all know the last day is already too crazy ๐Ÿคชโ€ฆ I ask them to draw another self-portrait.

The growth from the beginning of the year to the end of the year always amazes me! Just look at the detail in this end of the year picture and that basketball on his shirt! I also have the kiddos write their name at the bottom. Huge growth there too!

I send these home on the last day as a keepsake for the parents.

โ€œMrs. Spitzerโ€™s Gardenโ€ is another great rea โ€œMrs. Spitzerโ€™s Gardenโ€ is another great read aloud for the end of the year! ๐ŸŒป

Just as you would lovingly tend to a garden, Mrs. Spitzer carefully nurtures her garden of students, helping them grow over the course of a school year.

โ€œSome of the plants grow quickly, pushing upward, eager, impatient. Some grow more slowly, unfolding themselves bit by bit. Some plants sprout thin and tall. Some are bushy and wide spreading. Some are bold, showy. Some are silvery and quiet, the color of the earth.โ€

And when the year is over, her job is done, โ€œbut the plants will keep growing!โ€
