Something I did one year was Beanie Baby Olympics, LOL. Well, i had a Beanie Baby Day and we used them in every subject - wrote stories, had B.B.s "act out" important events in history, LOL.Math was the most fun. We | took class surveys and made graphs. Boy/Girl/?? BBs, BBs Favorite Food, BB Colors, etc. etc. And then we held the Beanie Baby Olympics! My favorite was the Beanie Baby Head Jump... I made a long capital "T" on the floor with electrical tape (masking tape on carpet can become a nightmare). The student woul dsit on his knees at the the top of the T, place the BB on his face (head tilted | |
back), then throw his head forward and see how far nthe BB "jumped" down the line. This distance was measured in inches and metrics, and graphed.In the BB Sled Race, we used a large dry erase board as a slope. the kids made paper sleds and timed how fast their BB slid down the incline. =o) I would let the kids brainstorm for ideas! I bet they could come up with a lot more. Of course, don't forget to have Newspaper Reporters to do interviews with the BBs and write articles about the exciting events! =o) Holly
