The kindergarten through 2nd grades at Howard Elementary celebrated the 50th day of school with learning stations all about the 50's.  The children learned to play Pick-up-sticks and Jacks.  The put together 50 piece puzzles of the United States, played Hop-scotch, Jump rope and Hula hoop.  They went to a pretend drive in and watched 'The Little Rascals' movie while eating a hotdog, potato chips and drinking a rootbeer float.  In the craft room they framed and decorated a picture of themselves in their 50's attire.  They went to the Library to learn about the real Dick and Jane books.  (Mrs. Stites learned to read using those books!)  Then the children topped off the day with a Sock Hop featuring Sandy and the Tooth Fairy.  What a fun way to celebrate the 50th day of school!
