It's the Final Countdown!

Hope you all had a fantastic Memorial Day Weekend. I know I did! We traveled to San Francisco and Wine Country for the long weekend. It was a breathtaking experience. The Golden Gate Bridge was celebrating it's 75th anniversary with a massive fireworks display. Between that and Napa, I was loving life!

Enjoying Napa!

Now that we are back to school, the final push to summer vacation has begun. We only have 19 days left til the students' last day. We decided to get a little crazy and have some fun. We followed many others and are doing an end of the year countdown in our classroom. We created a list of activities for the students to do each day. We then wrote them on slips of paper and placed them in balloons. Finally we blew the balloons up and hung them around the room.

The kids were super excited to see all the balloons and can't wait to pop one each day. We tried to add a variety of activities that were fun and reasonably each to do. You can get our list of ideas below. We left a few slips blank for you to add your own ideas. If you use it and/or have any other ideas, feel free to let me know in the comments below.
