50's Day

This past Tuesday was the 50th day of school. In kindergarten, we make a really big deal out of the "100th day of school" and this year we wanted to do something for the 50th day. So this year we decided to have a "50's day" at school.

It was so much fun to get dressed up and see the girls with their poodle skirts and the boys with their hair slicked back. They were SO CUTE!! I made a c.d of 50's music, so we danced the day away in my classroom to, "Johnny B. Goode", "Shake, Rattle, and Roll", "Tutti Frutti", "Rock Around the Clock" and many more. It was such a blast! Have I mentioned how much I love swing dancing and this kind of music? Man, now I want to go out and dance!

We also had several newspapers come out and take some pictures of our kids. They also did a story over our 50's day that you can read here. Overall, it was a really great day! Here's a picture of my amazing kindergarten team! Watch out..we're pretty hot ;0) (l-r Danielle, Amy, me, Becky, Barbara and Eliza)
