End of Year Party

On Tuesday, June 12, Team Kit Kat celebrated a great first year at Bear Creek. In the morning the students rotation between four subject based stations. We had a Stack the States tournament and played the games our classmates made for their USA Regions projects in Social Studies. We played Bingo with vocabulary words in the Science station, and we got to do the awesome First in Math website for the math stations. Finally we got to do a variety of poetry projects in the Comm Arts station. Some kids drew really funny pictures for their idioms!

We had a picnic lunch, but unfortunately our picnic had to be inside because of the rain. It was still fun because we got to eat in whichever room we wanted to with our friends! Then we had indoor recess with them.

The last part of the day was super fun. We split into 13 different groups and played Minute to Win It stations! These stations were so funny! For some of them you had to be really, really patient, like when you were trying to stack the chapsticks or pick up the noodles with the spaghetti in your mouth! Others required you to have good aim, like the ones where you had to hike the toilet paper through the inner tube, bounce the marble into a small bowl, or shoot the paper football through the uprights. It was so much fun! You can check out pictures from our great afternoon below. Thank you to all the parents who came in to help out and make our lunch and party a great success!!
