What a Day!

It might just have been the busiest day of the year...at least  here in First Grade! Our festivities began with 100th day centers run by some very willing parent volunteers. Next, during recess we exchanged our heartfelt Valentine's. And finally, the long awaited Valentine's party!! So much fun....so little time! Here are just a few highlights from our fun filled day!


100th Day Centers
At the building center children had to work as a group to create a structure using 100 mini cups. Their finished products were pretty impressive!

At the game center children had to roll 2 dice, add them together to find the sum, then color that many spaces on their 100's board. They were all winners!

At the 100 steps center, children had to predict how far they's get with 100 steps. Then they tested out their predictions to see how far they really got. Off they go!

Valentine Exchange and Party
And finally, we exchanged Valentine's and had another amazing party! The children were ecstatic to get and receive notes and little goodies from each other. What a sweet and thoughtful bunch of first graders!

The Game : A relay race with a twist...carry the heart pillow with no hands! What a way to get a party started!

The Craft: Super cute heart shaped glasses. They loved showing them off!

The Snack: Frosting, sprinkles, and Rice Krispie Treats....what more is there to say?

Have a wonderful vacation, whether you are some place warm and sunny or surrounded by snow, like me. Enjoy time with your family, I know I will!!
