Every year in January when we have just one day to meet as a class, we have Silly Sally Day. Get yourself a copy of Silly Sally. Kids love it!
To celebrate Silly Sally Day we turned things upside down - literally - and we did a few unexpected wacky things. Art was under the table. We had huge white butcher paper taped to the bottom of the table and a bucket of markers. The children crawled under the table, laid on their backs and colored up in the air. Mrs. O'Connor and Mrs. Magee also got under the table to color, but there is no photographic evidence. We even had a few puzzles and games under the table. Some children had fun with that idea right away. One little Bunny girl kept moving the games to the top of the table when no one was looking. heehee. She had a hard time understanding that we put the games under the table purposely! Any guesses who it might have been? At the easel, the children used dot markers to decorate an upside down girl as Silly Sally. At the sensory table we had fake snow. Not glitter or plastic-y fake Christmas snow. We call it "real fake snow". It is powdery white like sugar until you add water. Then poof! It becomes snow - cool to the touch, delicate and smooth. It's an unexpected delight for Southerners like us.
