You’re packing up your art room.

Your brain is already on holiday.🏖️

But…

There's still a week or two to go before the ACTUAL holidays.

SERIOUSLY???? How is this not over yet???🥴🫠

And…

How do you keep your students engaged without messing up what you’ve already cleaned up?

The answer…

Use these 5 end of year arty activities to keep students engaged and your packed-up room intact.

Hang in there my art teacher friend! You’re nearly there. 👍🏽

Hey lovely art teacher,

Woohoo!

You made it to December my art teacher friend!

Well done you!

As the end of the year approaches, I hope these 5 handy tips will help set you up for your end of year clean up. I know they definitely made my life easier when I was teaching.

I know you’re buggered at the moment, but your refreshed January self will thank you for any effort you can muster up now, to get things in place for the first day back next year.

Just do your best.

You got this!

P.S. Here’s a BONUS TIP: If your school has a washing machine, wash all the art smocks, and if it doesn’t then take them home to give them a wash. It doesn’t take long for art smocks to get a bit gross, but washing them at least once a year (twice if you can but let’s be real, that probably won’t happen) helps make it less gross!

Take care of you!
