Wow, it’s hard to believe that Halloween is here and
that Monday we will begin the month of November.
It has been an exciting week in room 11. We painted
pumpkins by mixing two primary colours together to create shades of orange. We then
learned about different shapes and chose our favourites to create
jack-o-lanterns. Finally, we imagined that we were jack-o-lanterns and used our
five senses to write about what we see, hear, feel and smell. These have been
posted outside our classroom on the bulletin board that you can see above. I
was so proud of the students and how well they could follow instructions.
In Math, we continued with some closed “Halloween”
word problems and worked with greater and lesser numbers.
In Social Studies we are learning about the groups
that we belong to. We have started creating our family portraits and will
finish them next week.
I hope that you have fun Trick-or-Treating if you
decide to go on Sunday. Stay safe and try to not eat too much candy or stay up
too late. I am looking forward to hearing all about it on Monday. Have a great
weekend and Happy Halloween!
