Literacy Day/Crazy Hair and Hat Day

This year we decided to combine two events to create one incredible, exciting fun filled day for our Elementary School students on Tuesday, October 27, 2009

Our Fellowship Hall was transformed into a wacky hair salon called  —– Hairy Situations. Teachers had to confirm their appointment with Tanya, one of the salon stylists, who was working the front desk. She welcomed in all our students who came in to salon. Many of the students and teachers walked in to the salon with crazy hair or hats. For those who didn’t have  a hat, we provide hats for them.

We played music videos and sang along to some popular Veggie Tale tunes.  After a fun time of singing, students were treated to books about hair or hats. After story time, the students watched some of our High School students act out a skit based on a Bible character named Samson. (Did you know the source of Samson’s strength was his hair!) During this fun time for students, teachers and aides were getting their hair done at the salon by a wacky hairstylist.

We wanted students to not only have fun, but to learn and get excited about reading!

Many students and teachers said this was the best Literacy Day ever!
