Cheers to sticker charts and Valentine's Day!!

WE DID IT!! 
At the beginning of the year, we made a goal to fill the back board with completed sticker charts and we finally did it... which meant a PARTY was a MUST! We celebrated with games, compliments, and food... of course!! We started out the party with a few minute-it to win-it games which are always a favorite. First, students had to move a heart across the classroom without using their hands.. the X marked the spot! (Sorry no pictures of this as I forgot...). Then we transported candy hearts across the classroom using only a popsicle stick. Finally, we ate a few (or SEVERAL) treats and wrote compliments to each other on big hearts. I think sticker charts will become a bit more popular after this party! Thank you parents for sending so many delicious treats. They were all wonderful!
I hope we fill the back board again so we can have another celebration!! :)
