Halloween Fun

We had fun celebrating an early Halloween yesterday. We did some fun activities like graphing Halloween M & M's, making a haunted house, and writing a pumpkin poem. Then after P.E., we did our most fun thing of all....we carved our class pumpkin into a jack-o-lantern! The children voted on the face we ended up carving. Some of the children loved getting their hands all sticky from pulling out the pumpkin goop, but others didn't want to have anything to do with it!! In fact, one said he was going to be sick just from looking at it and smelling it! (Thankfully that didn't happen) It was a fun day together!!
Here is our class with the vampire cat jack-o-lantern.

I hope they all have a happy and safe Halloween and get lots and lots of candy!!

Firefighter Visit

Last week for Fire Safety Week, we had a firefighter from Huntsville City come and visit our class along with Mrs. Mitchell's and Ms. Adams' classes. He was the dad of Abigail in Mrs. Mitchell's class. He gave us lots of fire safety tips and even showed us what firefighters look like when they are dressed in all their gear.

We are so thankful that he took time out of his busy schedule to come and visit us!

Welcome Back!

I was so very glad to see your children this morning! I thoroughly enjoyed my week off with my family, but I missed their smiling faces. We had a great first day back, and I just know that we are going to have a great week.
Just to share, this was my view over Fall Break:
