How to Stay Charged During the Final Weeks of School
"Get into a project you've wanted to do all year. Gently put aside pacing guides and textbooks, and take out the art supplies, construction materials, music, food, and novels. Do something hands on, project based, and fun. They'll get into anything you're passionate about. You'll have the energy to get through the days."

Keep 'em learning with end-of-the-year activities
Remembering closure is a learning experience, so consider having students organize their notes and review what they've learned in the form of a play or scrapbook. In addition, have them predict their future and place their prediction in a self-addressed envelope. Mail it to them a few years later. Some students may have moved, but many find the letters a great way to rekindle memories and motivate themselves.
Although some of the ideas may be young for high school, they can be modified by adjusting the materials.

Create a Class Yearbook
http://www.education-world.com/a_lesson/02/lp268-02.shtml
Create a Class Yearbook
Students create a keepsake yearbook of memories from the school year about to end.
In this activity, each student will create a page in a class yearbook. If available, use a digital camera to take pictures that can be printed and pasted on the pages. Ask students to record vivid memories from the school year on the pages. Younger students can dictate.
After students have created their personal yearbook pages (in writing or by using a word processing software program), photocopy individual pages so each student can have a yearbook of their classmates' memories too.

With less than a week of school left, the kids are already off the wall. Don't give up on this school year too soon, though. Just because books have been tucked into storage and final exams are done, that doesn't mean that the remaining school days should be wasted!

In those schools, every teacher plans a special mini course based on an area of personal interest .....

What to Do on the Last Day of School

At my school, the last day will be a half day, releasing the students around noon. But, whether you have a full day or a minimum day, there's still plenty you can do to make the last day fun and memorable - definitely not a waste of time! Consider these ideas ....
