Banana Bingo Celebration: Bumper Seats!

 On Thursday the class celebrated our final banana bingo.  After brainstorming several ideas, they decided on classroom bumper seats.  Everyone in the class got to choose their own seats for the day.

Banana Bingo Celebration: Lunch and Dance Party in the Classroom!

 We got a banana bingo last week and the class voted on lunch and dance party in the classroom.  This is always a favorite.  Something about eating lunch in a different place is exciting for them!  And they LOVE the dancing part!

Electronic Day

 Last week the students earned a Banana Bingo!  After brainstorming a list of ideas for celebration, they ultimately decided on Electronic Day.  The students were able to bring in a device from home and had the last 25 minutes of the day to use their device with friends.

Banana Bingo Celebration!

 On Monday we earned our first banana bingo!  Throughout a school day, the class earns points by transitioning quickly and quietly back to our seats.  When I say, "Banana to your seats," the class knows to return to their seats without voices.  This earns them a banana point.  They also earn points when materials are handed out, and the quiet helpers confirm that there were no voices.  Once 5 points are earned, we draw a number and add a banana to our bingo board.  Eventually, we get a bingo!  Once a bingo is earned on our board, we brainstorm ways to celebrate as a class.  For our first celebration the class voted on watching a movie with popcorn.  Once an idea has been used for banana bingo, it won't be repeated.  We'll always celebrate in a new way.  The students were beyond excited to celebrate on Wednesday afternoon!
