I've always wanted to sit down with my kids and talk about how the school year went, what we could do better, what they wished we would have done, etc. And I often do talk to my girls informally about those questions....but I wanted something more.
This year I made up a questionnaire that I could keep in their notebooks about some of their favorite things from this past school year. I just made up my own because all the printable ones I could find were geared for public school kids (they all had the question...who was your favorite teacher? Ummm...that would be ME!)
It was a simple typed form...but it worked!
Here are some of the answers
