Today we had a slime party to celebrate good behavior for the month.  Each day our Students are Taking Academic Responsibility by making good choices at school. They start the day with 4 stars and try to keep them all day or even earn an extra star for excellent behavior. Teachers kept track of student scores all month and averaged them to see who was invited to celebrate good behavior at our S.T.A.R. Party. Any student that averaged 3 stars or higher was able to make slime.   Students who averaged 4 stars or higher were “Rock Stars” and were able to add fluorescent paint or food coloring to their slime. This month all students in our class were Stars or Rock Stars!  Yipee!  The kids had tons of fun making the slime and playing with it. Here’s the recipe in case you’d like to have some more slime fun at home!

1. Squeeze 1 bottle of school glue (4 oz) into a plastic cup.
2. Add paint or food coloring to dye it and stir.
3. Add about 1 Tablespoon of Sta-Flo liquid starch and stir. Some students needed a bit more.
4. If the slime is too sticky add a sprinkle of baking soda.
