Fiesta

Bob Lewis Elementary does a pretty good job celebrating Fiesta week.  This year they wanted to make sure that each of the grades were able to do something special.  The Kindergarden classes are involved in the Fiesta Float Parade and the 3rd Graders get to do the Wax Museum, so it was the first year that 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th were apart of a science hat parade.  Each child was given a science term that they had to represent on a hat, and they could be however creative they wanted.  Kylee was not very good about communicating the assignment.  We bought the materials and she made it in one night since it was already past due.  On April 12th they had a parade and all the grades involved showed off their science hats.

This year was Julia's turn for the Fiesta Float Parade.  I tried to make things a little easier and found a foam kit at Michael's that she used with her fairies to make a fairy land.  We cut out a lot of foam flowers to add to it.   

This year they had a better set up to view the parade which was on April 20th.  In years past we had to stand in the hallway as the kids pulled their fiesta float through the hallways.  This year that set up chairs in the gym so the parents could sit down and watch the kids pull their floats by.  They even had them go through twice.   

At Blake's MDO they also got to make a Fiesta hat on April 26th.
