We had a great day on Halloween (actually, the 29th)! We started the day by getting into costumes and showing off for everyone in the class. Then, we had some visitors from the high school who talked to us about Halloween safety. Next, we began our 1/2 hour pumpkin activity sessions by working on pumpkin math and reading with Mrs. Bracken. We estimated the circumference of a giant pumpkin, and then read a mini-book about costumes and added a picture of ourselves on the last page. Then, we headed to Mrs. Hjellming's class to play some pumpkin games. After that, we went to Mrs. Winchell's room to hear a pumpkin story and play pumpkin bingo. Our next session was with Mrs. LaPan, who taught us some Halloween songs. Our last session was with Miss Goodman (student teacher), who helped us with an Art project to go with the song "Five Little Pumpkins." We ended the morning by relaxing and watching a Halloween video. It was really fun to go to all of the classrooms for a special activity!
Kerrian and Megan (both former students of mine) reminded us about wearing safe costumes, eating only wrapped candy, and staying with an adult while trick-or-treating.
They passed out suckers, which we ate while listening to the rules.
We asked some questions, too.
Here we are in our costumes - don't we look great?
No one was too scary.
It's fun to pretend to be someone (or something) else!
We got into our regular clothes before playtime, and then continued with our normal routine in the afternoon. Thanks to everyone for being on your best behavior on a very busy day!!
