Term 4 No Chore Linky: Organising for the End of Year Clean Up

Here in Australia, we are in our final term of school for the year {eek}. It is always a super busy term with reports, assessments, Christmas activities, school performances and the end of year clean up that comes with the job. 

With only 10 more weeks to go, it's getting to crunch time! I am linking up with some fantastic blogging friends to share some tips to survive and be super organised for the end of the year. After you read my tip, make sure you go to the link up below to find other fantastic ideas to survive Term 4 :)

Term 4 No Chore Tip
One of the biggest tasks at the end of the year is cleaning up, especially if you are needing to change classrooms. I am the checklist queen and find having a list at the end of the year really helps. Over the years, I have moved from scribbled notes EVERYWHERE to having a typed up checklist.

Here is a pdf copy you may like, with a blank version for you to write on. For other great teaching ideas follow me on Instagram, Facebook & Pinterest!

Drum roll........... My 5 Random Things for the week...........

One
We have finally made it to our mid-year holidays*! 11 week terms** should be made illegal my poor little poppets were exhausted this week {tears everyday} but they have been SO good! I can honestly say I will miss them over the 2 weeks... same could not be said as enthusiastically a month ago :) 
*side note- we call our 'vacation' holidays... just so you know :)
**our school year in Australia {or at least Victoria} is spilt into 4 terms, not 3 like the majority of the world... and it's our mid-year winter holidays now

Bring on the sunshine!! We are heading to the 'top-end' next week where it should hopefully be warm enough to swim. Fingers crossed. I'm dreaming of beaches, sunshine and margaritas

Four
This week was our "fun finale" so the kiddos and I have hung out, cleaned up, {they have} watched movies {while I did planning, listened to readers, cleaned, etc}, and just enjoyed each others company! It was lovely. We celebrated yesterday with movie & popcorn day which I completely forgot to take pictures of... oops


Five
We visited our school 'Rural Block' yesterday which is basically a mini garden/farm at the back of our school property. We grow tons of fruit & veg seasonally {tomatoes, corn, lettuce, strawberries, zuchinni, pumpkins, etc} and collect and sell eggs from our chickens. Aren't they the cutest?
