Busy Fall Week

Last week was a very busy week for us!





We started out the week by presenting our version of The Little Old Lady Who Wasn't Afraid of Anything at the RAP meeting.


I was afraid that when I suggested that we get up in front of our parents and other parents that the children would probably be a little nervous, but boy these kids were not afraid of anything either! They jumped at the chance to get to do it. It was a huge success!! The children did a fantastic job acting out this cute spooky story and the parents loved it! This was a great way for us to turn a book into something fun that we could share with others. We also got to practice our fine arts skills of role playing and acting out stories!






Friday was our school's book fair kick off and dress like your favorite character day. We love to read and I was excited to see the characters that the children chose.




We had a skeleton from one of our favorite new books, The Haunted House That Jack Built. We were definitely safe here at school because we had Bumblebee nad Optimus Prime from transformers. We also had Jango Fett from Star Wars. Then we had our beautiful princesses Cleopatra, Snow White, and Rapunzel from Tangled. We also had an airplane pilot! The children did a fantastic job. I love that characters like Snow White, Rapunzel, and Star Wars are still popular today. When someone comes up with characters so loveable that they can stand the test of time, you know that they are really something!



At the end of the day we had our fall party.

We started out by painting pretty fall pumpkins! The children worked very hard and they turned out fantastic!




Then we had some snacks. Spider cake! Yum!




And finally we had a little dance party. They did the mash...they did the Monster Mash!



It was a fun filled day for everyone!
