Happy Halloween!

The kids have today off, so we had our Halloween parties yesterday!  They are allowed to dress up here and they were so cute!  We did "Spooky Reading" during our reading time (which basically means I turned off all the lights in the room, they brought flashlights to read with, and could sit where ever they wanted)...in 3rd grade terms, this is a BIG deal.  They thought it was so much fun.  Here are a few pics...





My team and I were skeletons.  We just finished a unit on the human body where the kids learned about bones.  They were quite impressed by our home made costumes.  I blew up the bones on the copier and we pinned them to our black clothes!  Cheap!  They held up surprisingly well...at least until the end of the day.  I love my team!


No big plans for Halloween...might just be doing dinner/ drinks with the girls!

Happy Halloween!
