► 8th-grade End of Year Survival Guide

This foldable brochure will allow students to reflect on their year! Pull these brochures out during Back to School season to get your new batch of kiddos better acquainted with you and your classroom! Students will get a kick out of the hidden messages included on each brochure...one reads "GOOD LUCK!" and the other reads "YOU'LL LOVE 8TH GRADE!" Both messages are only visible when the image is angled a certain way (directions are included!)

► End of Year Puzzle Pack

An 18-page packet of puzzles which includes a variety of mazes, word searches and more. Your students will be able to work independently on their puzzle packs (comes with a cover too) while you do ALL the things you need to do at the end of the year! It includes the following:

• 8 challenging mazes
• 4 difficult word searches, 48 words each!
• 4 Word Escape Puzzles - 4 levels of increasing difficulty and answer keys (based off the popular app!)

► Would You Rather

This Would You Rather whole class activity is a fun way to get your lethargic students excited, create classroom camaraderie, and get students talking and connected! Questions align with student interests and are the perfect mix of silly, funny, trending, gaming & social media-related topics. No prep is needed, simply project the slides and play as a whole class game! Whether you call it "Would You Rather" or "This or That," the prompts are so fun that kids will be begging you for more!

⭐I like to use these slides for a quick brain break. 100 Would You Rather Slides are included (now in Google Slides!) but you can also use about 10 slides at a time as a fun activity whenever you need a break!
