Fun Friday Activities
By Jen Woodmansee-Barnett

I have been doing this for the past 7 years in my classrooms. Listed below are some activities that I do with my primary ages students. You can also visit my website for updated information. My assistant and I are always
trying to come up with something new or different! We also try to post photos occassionally.

Fun Friday
Thirty minutes is set aside from 2:00-2:30 pm on the last day of each school week as a reward for good behavior during the week. On the first day of the week, post the activity for all to see during the week (I have mine on the near the calendar

area.) In order to “enter” the activity, students may only have a select number of punches on their weekly behavior ticket (usually 5 punches per week in Kindergarten.) Listed below are various activities that are free or inexpensive to use as the rewards.
