All the kids bring a couple of rolls of toilet paper and then they get to wrap up anything that doesn't move, throw it or anything else they want. What better way of ending the school year than by having a Super Soak Day on the last day of school. You, the teacher, must provide the balloons to fill with water and little spray bottles. You can also use a small wading pool and accessories for the kids to play inside the pool. We turn our classroom into a Movie House.
Children sell tickets, popcorn, candy, etc.
Each child is given a job to perform. Some help set up the room, bag popcorn and candy, sell tickets, etc. Because everyone wants to be the ticket seller, we make it fair by drawing names from a hat for each job. The most exciting part of this project comes when all the children are seated and the movie starts. To their surprise, the movie is a video tape I take of them throughout the school year playing in centers, outside, and during various small group activities.
