The 50th Day of School

{Me, Stephanie Lucero, Kim Blevins, Patricia Guajardo}

On November 2nd, our Kindergarten classes celebrated the 50th day of school by dressing up 50's style! Even the teachers whipped out their cardigans, rolled up jeans, rolled down socks, and poodle skirts. I even used my Aggie ring on a chain around my neck! The kids loved it and it was so fun to see all the girls in pony-tails with scarves and the boys with their hair slicked back! We learned how to make 50 tally marks, colored a pink and black pattern on 50 squares (looked like a diner), counted to 50 by 10's, counted to 50 by 5's, counted to 50 by 1's, drew a picture of how we celebrated the 50th day of school, listened to 50's music all day while we worked on different activities, hula-hooped in PE, and danced to 50's music in Music! To top it all off, we had coke floats for snack-time at the end of the day...uhhh what was Mrs. Branch thinking on that one?!?! They were hyyyyper! I can't take credit though, Stephanie Lucero (in the pink ladies jacket) had heard of this idea and really got it all together for our Kindergarten team. I think this idea is a keeper as it was a huge hit!
