Minute To Win It Games, Auction, Video/Awards

We spent the week playing some fun minute to win it inspired games! The kids really enjoyed playing these and looked forward to learning new ones every day. The first one was called "Flip Your Lid" and they had to flip the cup onto the different sized jars. 
 The next game was called, "There She Blows" and they had to use a straw to blow a cup across the table. For this game, two students raced until everyone got a turn. They had a fun time cheering everyone on until everyone got their cup to the other side. 
 "A Bit Dicey" was a lot easier for the kids than I thought it would be! They put a popsicle stick in their mouth and balanced three dice on top of each other. They enjoyed this game as well!
In the game, "Scrambled Breakfast" they had to put a puzzle together to make a picture of a cereal box. 

The last game, "Face The Cookie" was definitely the kids favorite!! They thought it was hilarious to watch me model how to get the Oreo into their mouths by moving their face muscles and using their tongue to help them! This was really tricky for them! No one was able to get the cookie into their mouth this way and many fell on the floor. We did get to enjoy a fresh cookie though after everyone had a turn!
 We had our end of the year auction and we had a lot of things set up around the room that the students could choose to take home. We auctioned off our color mosaics, our playground map, our number cards, Charlotte's Web sequencing illustrations, documentation panels, alphabet cards, and numbers from our number line
 Here are pictures of what some of the kids chose from our auction!
 We had a great turnout for our end of the year video and awards! Thank you to everyone who was able to come! The kids were all excited to have you all there supporting us and I was very grateful as well. I hope you all enjoyed your DVD's. The kids wanted to watch it over and over again at school so I hope they were able to do so at home!
We also made a circle and reflected on our year together. I asked questions and each student had a turn to think about it and give their answer. Some of the questions we asked were: "What was your favorite thing we did this year? What was the hardest thing you did this year? What was the nicest thing someone did for you?".
 At the end of the week we had a reward of watching Frozen! The kids have talked about it so much this year and I actually hadn't seen it yet. We voted on a couple different choices and of course this one won! 
Thanks for stopping by! Looking forward to a great last two days of school! 
Have a great week!
