Happy New Year High Fives Writing Prompt Craft

All Freebies

This quick, easy and fun New Years writing prompt craftivity, makes an awesome bulletin board or hallway display.

“High fives for me! I made these New Year resolutions and am trying to keep them.” Encourage students to think of five.

Afterwards, children pick a partner and take turns tracing each others hand and wrist on a bit of flesh-tone construction paper, then trim.

Drawing fingernails, a watchband and rings adds extra pizzazz.
Have children write the New Year below the “knuckles”.

I’ve included a clock pattern students can cut and glue to their wristband, drawing hands to show midnight.

The girls LOVED adding flat-backed jewels to their rings. You can get self-stick ones, or use mini glue dots. Glitter nail polish was another option and highlight.

Students glue their hand print on a diagonal on the bottom, right corner of their completed writing prompt.

For more color, have children glue the writing prompt paper on a sheet
of colorful construction paper, then scatter on a bulletin board or
hallway wall.
