🔎End of Year Activity – Scavenger Hunt

This scavenger hunt is a fun way to reward students for finishing the school year. Students will enjoy searching the classroom and talking with peers to complete their tasks. It is also a great tool to reinforce social skills. This scavenger hunt includes 16 different end-of-year tasks. Some of the tasks include:

  • Find a fiction book you enjoyed reading.
  • Find a game you enjoyed playing.
  • Find something that reminds you of your teacher.
  • And more!

Even More Fun End-of-Year Activities for the Classroom

Once you finish up this scavenger hunt, try out a few of these exciting last-day-of-school activities, too!

  • Movie Marathon: Pick some movies that are good for the age of your students and that relate to what you have been teaching them during the school year. Then, have a fun movie day with popcorn and snacks.
  • Board Game Extravaganza: Arrange different games and allow students to choose and play the ones they like. You can have a small competition or just have fun playing the games.
  • Art and Craft Day: Organize a fun-filled day where students can let loose with creativity and have fun crafting personalised cards and art!
