Mrs. Rhone's & Mrs. Skal's Fabulous 50th Day of Kindergarten

On Tuesday, November 22, Mrs. Rhone’s and Mrs. Skal’s Kindergarten classes celebrated the 50th Day of Kindergarten, 1950’s style! Of course, we dressed up in our best 50's gear and danced whenever we had a chance. The Jitterbug, the Hand Jive and Twist were the dances on our list! We compared today to the 50’s and talked about what was so nifty: Lassie, Howdy Doody, poodle skirts, greased hair, bowling, hula hoop and of course, counting to 50! We integrated social studies, science, math, music and movement and art into our theme with activities such as: now and then, predicting if ice cream sinks/floats in Coke floats, patterning, counting, addition, subtraction and spin art. We concluded our day with a 1950’s party that demonstrated all of our activities to our parents.
Happy 50th Day of Kindergarten!!!
