Funny Awards for 6th Grade End of Year
Can you believe it? The end of the 2021-2022 school year is upon us. It is the time to start thinking about end-of-the-year rituals and celebrations. One of the celebrations I always looked forward to was the Awards Ceremony.
The one award that sticks in my memory was the Mighty Mustang award. I worked at a 4th-6th grade campus, and our mascot was the mustang. The Mighty Mustang award was given on teacher discretion. Whether it was an improvement in behavior or classwork, going above and beyond, recognizing a victory, or supporting growth, the Mighty Mustang was an honor for both students and teachers. With all the yard signs I see in my neighborhood, a twist on the Mighty Mustang award might be a lawn sign that could be placed in their yard or even a window. It is a great way to show how awesome students are.
High chances are the mustang is not your mascot, but this award could easily be tweaked to fit your school and mascot. Here is a couple I thought of:
- Fearsome Falcon
- Five Star Shark
- Golden Eagle
- Extra Mile Meerkat
- Rising Star Ranger
- High Flying Hippo
I thought it might be helpful in your endeavors for certificates to round up a few resources. Check out the assortment of free and fee-based awards you can use for your 2021-2022 awards and certificates.
