We had a great day on Halloween! We started the day by getting into costumes and showing off for everyone in the class. Then we began our 1/2 hour pumpkin activity sessions by working on pumpkin math and reading with Mrs. Bracken. We estimated the weight and 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. Dahl'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 last session was in Mrs. LaPan's room where we learned about bats and made a bat hat. We ended the morning with a parade in our Commons with all of the first graders as we sang "Five Little Pumpkins." It was really fun to go to all of the classrooms for a special activity!



We got back in our regular clothes before playtime, and then worked on Red Ribbon Day activities in the afternoon (drug awareness), and also designed and carved a pumpkin .
Thanks to Levi for the great sticker books, and to Sam for an afternoon snack!
I invited everyone to come to my house for Trick or Treats, and quite a few kids showed up. I took a picture by our class pumpkin of everyone who came. It was fun to see all of you, and your brothers, sisters, and friends!
