This is just a short post of advice...make your life easier! Sometimes we make things so difficult as teachers. Especially when it comes to class parties / fun days.
My best idea (that I stole from another teacher) is to wrap tables for certain days. This is a must with the Christmas and Valentine's parties where we eat and decorate things in the room (supes messy). Look at the pics below.
All that mess - it just gets rolled up and thrown away at the end of the day. Not only do I feel better, but my custodians appreciate it.
One more time to wrap tables - when you have a day like field day, field trip, end of year party, etc. and you don't have specific 'morning work' to do that day. Wrap the tables with white butcher paper and let them color their little hearts out. This one was the last day of school so I wrote their names...but you could just leave it blank. But that would just have been a lame picture...
Fun and easy. Don't make life harder on yourself...it's hard enough on those crazy days.
Happy teaching~
