Our 50th day celebration was a big hit! The kids loved going back in time and experiencing life how it was in the 1950's. Everyone was dressed to impressed in their 50's poodle skirts and blue jeans.
Aren't they just so stinkin' cute?
We lined the halls with records and decorated our room to really make it feel like the 50's.
Making our records was a fun way to practice some of our shapes. My friends are really great at identifying ovals and circles! We also learned that working together as a team makes things a whole lot easier!
and the finished product...
We turned our records on and danced our way to the 50th day!
We've been practicing a lot with making tallies and counting by 5's. We practiced making 50 tally marks and counting by 5's to 50.
In our math center, Mrs. Schlagle helped us count our way to 50. We made special 50's necklaces that the kinders really enjoyed eating. What better way to practice counting and fine motor than candy necklaces?
Mrs. Ryer helped us at our root beer float center. Kinders got to make their own root beer floats and give them a taste. They graphed whether or not they like their floats.
At the bubble blowing station, we tried and tried and tried to blow bubbles, and some of us did! We graphed how big our bubbles were. I tired to get a picture of my friends that blew bubbles, but they popped before I could get the shot!
We also tried hula hooping to fifty. Most of my friends were WAY better at this than I was :) Check out our awesome action shots.
Thanks to Mrs. Bassett, we had an awesome 50's snack.
We had a sock hop to end our fabulous day. These kinders definitely brought their dancing shoes! We hand jived and twisted the day away!!
Mason having a ball!
Miss Alexis should have been born in the 50's with those moves!
If the 50th day was this much fun, we CAN'T wait for the 100th day!
