We began our day by discussing how life in the past was different from life in the present. We used power points, venn diagrams, and discussion to convey this hard concept.
Thank you for helping making our 50th Day of School a great celebration! We had a great time. The students danced to fifties music, compared and contrasted "Kids in the 50's" and "Kids Today", wrote about the comparison of the fifties and today, made Coke floats, and wrote the steps to make a Coke float. We played several games using our current skills being taught in a FIFTY way. Then, at the end of the day we had a hula hoop contest and a bubble gum blowing contest to see how many we could do in 50 seconds. I can't begin to tell you the communication, conversations, and learning that took place in a non-traditional way. I love it!! It was FABULOUS!
I hope you enjoy the slide show. It was "the best day ever!!!!"
