At the very beginning of the school year, on the second day in fact, the students in my room are met with a questionnaire on their desk. This questionnaire has spots for information about them more as CHILDREN than as students. What is their favorite food? Favorite musician? Strength as a student? What do you like to do at home?
I love these because they give me a small insight into who the children are sitting in my room. It also helps me to see who the popular singers and actors of the day are ;)
But what is more important is what I did with these at the end of the year. Throughout this school year, I have been using
The Important Book
when learning to summarize, discuss reference books, even to write letters to our volunteers. There is just so much application with this book, that I find that I use it A LOT as a teacher. So I thought it only fitting to use if for the End of Year gift for my students.
Come on over to my blog to see just how I used these little questionnaires and
The Important Book
, to put together a gift my student LOVED!

Oh, and pick up a copy of the questionnaire that you can use (I made mine above in Vista Print, but I made a special one just for you!)
