This is a fun craft! The students can write reasons they love mom on the petals of the flower as well as write a short note on the pot.
I love this because it doesn't say anything about Mother's Day on the craft for students who may not have a mother in their life. These students can still give this project to their caregivers.
A retelling hand activity for lower level writers as well as those with more experience. For lower level writers have them use the copy with lines on the side so they have more room to write. For higher level writers have them write their retelling in the fingers of the hand. Also included is an activity idea for an example. The students could cut out the example hand and glue it to a popsicle stick so they can pull it easily for a reference.
A sheet for your students to write down the books they read during the summer.
I am using this as group incentive in my daycare class, but it could also be an individual activity for students during the summer.
