May has a spirit all its own. There’s a gentle pull toward what’s next… summer plans, graduations, travel, and new adventures on the horizon. But even in the midst of winding down, May holds so many rich opportunities to finish strong, celebrate growth, and savor these last pages of the school year.

In homeschooling, May can look like wrapping up core subjects while leaning into more hands-on learning, creating final projects or memory books, heading outdoors for nature walks, or diving into passion projects that light your child up.

If you’re looking for fresh ideas to keep the learning joyful this month, here are a few to explore:

• Nature Walk Scavenger Hunt (Printable)
  Turn a simple walk into an adventure of observation and wonder.
• End-of-Year Memory Book Pages (Printable)
  Capture favorite memories, proudest moments, and reflections.
  Start building excitement for summer reading with a playful twist.
• Outdoor STEM Activities
  Mix fresh air and learning with simple, engaging outdoor projects.
• Year-End Reflection Journal Prompts
  May isn’t just about wrapping things up—it’s about honoring the journey, savoring growth, and setting the stage for all that’s still to come.

  You’re doing a beautiful job. Your steady steps, your intentional choices, and your heart for your child’s learning make all the difference.

  Kindly,
  Kara Parkins, Parent Support SupervisorInvite kids to reflect on their growth and look ahead with intention.
