Happy Halloween!
Students have been really excited for Halloween over the past few weeks! With it's arrival this Monday, we decided to celebrate by doing some super fun, curriculum connected activities.
We read Maurice Sendak's, Where the Wild Things Are.
We practiced visualizing those terrible "wild things" and then tried to make our own monsters. We described them using adjectives with labels in our Monster diagrams too!
Pumpkin Bats
We also had fun making "pumpkin bats" with some AMAZING parent volunteers this week.
These served as perfect models when we finished up our bat informational books this week too!
We synthesized information from multiple sources to create our very own bat teaching books.
These nonfiction readers become nonfiction writers before my eyes!
Witch Visit
To finish off the Halloween day with a really exciting treat, we had a special visit from Mrs. Erwin! She flew into our room with her witches hat on, ready to read us a spooktaular story!
I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful Halloween!
Love,
Mrs. L
