Oops!

So I had a big ole list of SWEET readers that I needed to get posted, but when I went to upload my pictures, I realized that my camera disc was full! Oops...so now I don't have their SWEET treat pictures to post:(
Have no fear, I have weeded out all of the old pictures and now have plenty of room for new pictures of SWEET readers! So sorry if your little one's picture didn't make it up, I'll make sure to get them on their next SWEET treat:)

Dem Bones!

During the month of October, we learned about the skeletal system. The students picked up lots of neat facts and information about bones from our science videos and non-fiction texts. At the end of the unit, the students wrote an informational text showcasing all the new schema they had gained about our skeletal system. They also made a Q-tip skeleton to go along with their writing. They looked great in the hallway:)





Here's what the finished product looked like...

Halloween Bash!


On Thursday, October 31st we celebrated Halloween with all things orange! We did lots of fun Halloween activities throughout the day. However, the real bash began at 1:30 with a costume parade! After the parade, we had spider races and the students had a blast! Sad to say that in all the excitement, I didn't get any pictures:( Once the races were over, it was time to feast...we had nachos, orange soda, cookies, and CANDY of course!!!! We wrapped up the party with a goody bag stuffed with treats and a special book from Mrs. Morrow:) It was a crazy, busy, FUN day...can't wait til the next party:0

Not Your Average Pumpkin!

During the month of October, the students were given a project to complete at home with their parents.  I asked the students to selected a book that they had read before and create one of the characters from the book on their pumpkin. There was only 1 rule: Do NOT carve or cut the pumpkin. I love doing this activity each year because theypumpkins always turn out so great:)
