Pumpkin Day

What an exciting day we had! To start, everyone became a pumpkin in my patch and each person had to convince me not to pick them. There were so many persuasive techniques applied I almost didn't know how to choose (or who not to choose!). In the end, I was most persuaded by Sagni's letter. Just wait until you hear it tomorrow! Next, we did lots of math with our donated pumpkins (estimation, measurement, etc!). The students all dove right into those pumpkins to get those seeds! Awesome! Between this, our haunted house house story and indoor recess - we had quite a day! Hope you had a great Halloween night! Remember not to eat too much candy and to brush your teeth!

Halloween Awesome

Trick or treating with young children

Not sure what I loved the most. The anticipation to get the candy, the running from one house to the next or having them go to the door, say Trick or Treat and leave without their candy prompting the homeowners to run after them. Trick or Treat? Awesome!
