One of the highlights of Fall Festival was each grade level's singing performance. Every 30 minutes a different grade met in the library and performed some songs for their parents. The auctions for the class items followed the entertainment. We weren't sure how many we would have in our audience for each performance, but the library was crowded every time. We are so lucky at East Chester to have parents and grandparents who are really interested in their children's activities.Sunday, November 29, 2009
Fall Festival Entertainment
One of the highlights of Fall Festival was each grade level's singing performance. Every 30 minutes a different grade met in the library and performed some songs for their parents. The auctions for the class items followed the entertainment. We weren't sure how many we would have in our audience for each performance, but the library was crowded every time. We are so lucky at East Chester to have parents and grandparents who are really interested in their children's activities.
Harvest Hoedown
On November 7, East Chester celebrated our annual Fall Festival. This year we called it "Harvest Hoedown." Laurie Tucker, Emily Shelton, and Michele White worked incredibly hard on the festival with decorating, planning, and organizing all the activities. The night went well, and we raised quite a bit of money for our school. Some of the activities included Win a Fish, Silly String a Teacher, Cake Walk, and Plinko. The building looked great with all the fall decorations. Everyone enjoyed the night, but I was glad it was over and that everything went well.
Fall Festival Class Crafts
Becky, Spring, and I worked with each class to make a class project for each to be auctioned off at the Fall Festival. We decorated gingerbread aprons, turkey aprons, Christmas tree aprons, and flower pots. They all turned out really good!!!Kindergarten Crafts
Each kindergarten class made two crafts with their children. I was able to get these pictures of their work. I don't have Mrs. Brandi's table runner, Mrs. Michelle's fish pillowcase, or Mrs. J's quilt. The crafts were just precious and the parents/grandparents loved them.Fall Festival Baskets
Some teachers chose to collect items to make themed baskets for auctioning at the Fall Festival. I think we ended up with about 25 baskets. The gift wrapping basket and chocolate basket were two crowd pleasers. The baskets were assembled and wrapped by Suzanne McCarver and Marla Davidson. What would I do without those two girls? They've helped me with these baskets since Lillie and Kendyl were in kindergarten. Thanks, ladies. You're the best!!!Fall Festival Trees
One of the many ways that the teachers help with Fall Festival is by decorating Christmas trees for auction. Ten of the eleven trees decorated are pictured here: Dee Arnold's, Jill Egros', Malorie Pusser's, Rosemary McKnight's, Carrie Sells', Sherri Cherry's, Leslie Hunt's, Kim Poston's, Michelle Hopkins', and Wendy Siler's trees were all beautiful.
