I am helping with a homecoming dance that has a neon theme. We need name ideas.
Fun!!!
How about
(Your School Name) Glows
Or
Call it ON BROADWAY...
You could use the George Benson song as your background and use a Broadway song as your theme...
The line from the song goes:
They say the neon lights are bright
On Broadway
Post back what you decide! Happy Dance!
Use, "It's Electric!" as the theme and play the Electric Slide song.
"Neon is a Gas With Atomic Number 10!"
Rock on Through Electric Avenue!
Here are the questions asked by community members. Read on to see the answers provided by the ThriftyFun community.
I'm a student council member at my school and we have chosen the '70s as a theme for our homecoming. I am in charge of finding ideas for things for us to do while at the dinner, entertainment and so on for all of us (who will be dressed formally). We have a low budget though, and a somewhat tough crowd. I would appreciate any ideas. Thank you!
Ok here are some ideas:
Decorate tables with old 45 or LP records, I am sure that you can get these from teachers or parents as we all grew up with them!
Many of your friends probably have lava lamps or sparkle lamps, ask if you can borrow them, and put them around the room for a groovy look.
Get large pieces of yellow poster board and make big smiley faces to hang from the ceiling.
Make big daisy looking flowers from construction paper to use for decorating.
Peace signs, funky sunglasses, stringed beads (I think you can buy these on a roll at the craft store pretty cheap) all will work for decorations.
Go to www.orientaltrading.com for ideas as well, this is a company that sells party supplies and they also give a lot of neat ideas for parties. Click on themes for retro party ideas!
Hope you have a fun and safe homecoming, let us know how it went and pictures would be super neat!
Don't forget a disco ball!

What is a good idea for character day at school for girls?

Women who made a difference for what they did, movers and doers, not the wife of some famous man. I used this something similar for teaching how to do research papers to 8th grade, no actors, actresses, entertainers, sport figures. There are an amazing number of inventors, many of them black Americans, that I and the class learned about as an oral report was also part of the assignment. This assignment had many graded parts, note cards, outline, visual (posters, graphs, examples, etc.), written report and oral report. Hope this helps you. Of course, this comes from the time teachers could teach something, not teach to some test.
Our homecoming theme is Dancing Around the World. We decided to have our homecoming outside as opposed to in the gym. I was wondering if anyone had ideas to make this years homecoming extra special. We need to make it really good because students are already upset about it being outside. So any ideas on decorations? Thanks.

Our school is doing "old school rock n roll" so 50's, 60's I guess and were doing hair day so like greaser hair 80s hair band hair beehives stuff like that and then 50s day so dress like poodle skirtes and then famous musicians of any time period so: Gaga, Beatles, Elvis all those but we can't figure out Thursday because Friday is battle of the classes when all of the classes have events. We don't have football so this is our intense thing. I'm a senior so we will hopefully win. Only two years in our schools history have the seniors not won and it was terrible cause they were show boats. Sorry rambled, if anyone has ideas for our Thursday, please tell me.

I am in charge of this year's homecoming. I go to Sam Houston High School and we are the Texans. Our theme this year is: "Time Warped Texans, a Retro Homecoming".
Our leadership class is having trouble thinking of ideas for our homecoming. We need ideas for dress up days, lunch time activities, fun skits about our opponent, and float ideas.
