We had a great time at our Fall Festival last week! Thank you so much to everyone who helped us out! In fifteen years of teaching, I have never seen a class that was more focused on their projects during Fall Festival. Everyone used their self-control and we had a really fun and successful day!
We started our day by reading the book Lindora's Leaf Monster. After reading the story we created our own leaf monsters. Everyone came up with very creative ideas! After lunch the students read fall stories, designed seed mosaics, created leaf print cards, made candy corn magnets, and played the game "Roll a Pumpkin." Everyone enjoyed some fall snacks after lunch. It was an awesome afternoon.
We also enjoyed the Harvest Hoedown on Wednesday! There were lots of laughs and smiles as we square-danced our way around the gym! We ended the hoedown by singing some of our favorite fall songs, including "Apple on a Stick."
Don't forget that there is no school on Tuesday, November 6th for parent/teacher conference day! If you have misplaced your pre-conference worksheet, please make sure that you let me know your academic and social hopes for your child this year as soon as possible so I can make sure our conference time addresses any concerns you may have. Also, if you are unsure of your conference time, please email me by Monday. I have a very tight schedule on conference day and will have limited access to email.
Have a wonderful weekend!
