*Mary the Teach*

I searched for hours to find this group of pictures from my granddaughters kindergarten class. (or maybe it was 1st grade)

 I remember this little project had to do with '100 items.' The children were to make a little parade on wheels with 100 items of their choice - glued to something that had wheels!  :) It may have been to mark 100 days in school..( this was in Feb,1997)...I just can't remember the details. (and Alli is away at college and I can't ask her  :)  )

Look closely and you can see that Alli used 'Happy Meal' toys to make up her float for the parade! Luckily for her she had 2 brothers before her who had consumed a lot of kid's meals before she came along!  She might have been shy a few without their help!  :)

(But maybe NOT!)

 

 Oh! I miss those fun days!!


Love,

Junie

    I am not totally in favor of such projects because, unless I'm mistaken, they can't be done without a lot of input and help by parents and grandparents. But since you evidently experienced much joy and have fond memories, there is obviously a positive side.

    I totally bet that it was to mark the 100th day of school and what a marvelous idea! I ALMOST wish I was still teaching to use the idea. :)
    I bet I have 100 happy meal toys in my attic.

    What an excellent idea to demonstrate the theme of the parade. I'll bet yours was the best one submitted that day Alli!

    Hi AC,

    I always liked the fun projects-with my kids AND my grandkids.

    Alli and her mom and brothers had fun with this, as I remember, and I enjoyed the day of the event with Alli. My daughter couldn't be there so I got to be the one who attended and watched the parade! :)
