Happy 70’s week Eagle Nation! You might be wondering, what was the music scene like in the 70's? Well, there was a lot of sad news with the breakup of the Beatles and the deaths of Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. One of the most tragic losses happened in 1977 with the death of the King, Elvis Presley. On a more positive note there were some really iconic bands that really rocked the 70’s. Led Zeppelin, Queen, Van Halen, Fleetwood Mac, The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd dominated the airwaves. Don’t forget Friday is “Dress like the 70’s.” See you on the flip side.

The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. They are widely regarded as the most influential band of all times and one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century.
Speaking of music, have you heard of Woodstock? This 4 day festival took place on a farm property in Bethel, New York in 1969. It was organized by four inexperienced promoters who managed to sign rock acts that included Jimi Hendrix, the Who, and the Grateful Dead. The show brought hundreds of thousands of people together for peace, music, and art. Many of the people attending were hippies.
Yes, the 1960s brought about a new group of people called hippies. Hippies were a countercultural movement that rejected mainstream American life. Many had long hair and wore colorful clothing.

Hey Eagle Nation - Where did teenagers go back in the 50’s?
Well…checkered flooring, neon signs and waitresses in poodle skirts. Nothing is more 50s than grabbing a greasy burger and strawberry shake at a diner, popping some change into the jukebox to hear your favorite tunes and kicking it with some friends.
Or you could head to the drive in. Drive-in theaters were the place to be on the weekends in the 1950s. With so many stylish convertibles on the road and the Golden Age of movies hitting its peak, the drive-in was the bee’s knees.
Don’t forget tomorrow is “Dress like the 1950’s”!!!

Theo Friedman was a major force in the goal making numerous difficult saves helping to give Galway the win.

Hey Eagle Nation! Friday is “Dress like the 1950’s” Day! What was popular in the 1950’s? Well…
Most girls wore poodle skirts and nice sweaters, but if you don’t want to look so fancy they also wore pants called pedal pushers which were short straight pants. No matter what you decide, add a scarf around your neck and a ponytail and you’re all set.
Some guys liked the “greaser” look which was rolled up jeans with a white t-shirt, leather jacket and slicked back hair. There’s also the preppy look which was rolled up jeans, a t-shirt and a varsity jacket.
Sounds cool Daddy - O!

Hey Eagle Nation, do you know what our school’s theme is for this year? It’s Soaring Through the Eras! Each month is dedicated to a different decade starting with September and the 1940’s.
We will have some cool facts and also each month there will be a Friday when you can dress as that decade. This Friday is our “Dress like the 1940’s” day. Not sure what to wear for the 1940s…check out the bulletin board in the 600 hallway or look it up.
So what was going on in the 1940’s? Well, World War II of course. But here are some other things that happened in that decade:
The 1st McDonalds opened in California.
Wonder Woman first appeared in All Star Comics.
The expression “Hi - de - ho” was a popular way to greet someone. We’ll share more fun 1940s facts from Mrs. Peconie and the 8th grade team tomorrow!
