Wow....what a great celebration our 50th Day was in 1st grade! Students were dressed to 'twist and shout' their way through the day and it was great fun to see everyone is their special attire! Our morning started with the task of writing the steps to make a root beet float, a favorite treat in the 50s! Students also enjoyed hearing from a special guest speaker, Charlotte Morgan (Mrs. Black's mother), who shared what life was like growing up in the 50's. She had many fun pictures and jewelry items to share with our learners as well! First Graders then challenged themselves to different 50's activities such as; how many bubbles they could blow, how many 'twists' twisted, how many bunny hops hopped, how many times they could hula hoop and how high they could count! During math, students worked hard estimating how many tootsie rolls and atomic fireballs would fit their 'records'. Last, this fun day came to a close with music from the 50's, complete with a record player and of course, a chance to sample some delicious root beer floats!
