Hello!

We started off the day with circle time and discussed what everyone would be wearing for Halloween. Some of us are going to dress up as Scooby Doo, Cars characters, and Disney princesses. What a wide array of Halloween costumes we will have in our class come October 31!

We also worked with glue sticks. Every student has started gluing in their own homework notes into their agendas without any problems. I am very proud that they are getting the hang of using everyday school materials properly and responsibly. We did an assignment that required gluing specific pieces to a mini story book. We are still working on it as it takes a lot of concentration and effort.

We also read a book about pumpkins and decided, as a class, how we will decorate our three pumpkins tomorrow. Tomorrow, we will be receiving a kind donation of three pumpkins for each class. Our mission: to decorate these pumpkins together to the best of our ability. So today, we put on our thinking caps and creativity shoes, some mistaken them for gym shoes, and brainstormed away!

We decided to decorate our pumpkins the following way: an elephant, a piggy, and the world. I am excited to see how these will turn out. Thankfully, we will have the aid of some very special, older helpers from other grades. The students love having our older helpers around.

So your mission at home: if you can think or have any cool, wacky things to add to our pumpkins, please bring them in tomorrow so we can decorate them with!!!!!


Thanks a bunch!!!!
