Today we celebrated the 50th day of school in style! Everyone dressed in their best 50's attire from head to toe. The room was filled with poodle skirts, loafers, oxfords, blue jeans, scarves, and more!
We started the day with a few photos.
Look at the girls...
The boys....
And the entire class...
We spent some time comparing and contrasting things in the 50's and things today. The kids were amazed with black and white, small televisions instead of today's color,
big screens!
We worked hard all morning and we were ready for a break, so we treated ourselves to root beer floats!
Many of us had no idea what a rootbeer float was; however, as you can see, we sure enjoyed them! We even wrote a "how to" book so we would have the recipe.
During writing time, we wrote about what we would look like and act like when we're 50.
The stories are too cute and still in progress. I hope to post them soon!
We even made a list of 50 things we LOVE!
During Math, we counted by 2's, 5's, and 10's to 50 and finished off the lesson with a mystery picture.
Can you guess what it was? Yes, it was the numeral 50!
We played a game, Roll and Cover, using 50's themed game boards. Everyone seemed to have a blast!
We finished off the day with a sock hop where we danced our hearts out and did the twist to many well known
50's songs.
I can't wait for the kids to share their stories with you.
We had a FABUOLUSLY FUN 50th Day of School!!!
HOW fun!!! I heard a lot about the root beer float & I think it is on the to do list for this weekend! Thanks, Mrs. Albright for making learning SO much fun!!
