Fall is here, and Halloween is coming...

The students used various materials to create fall leaves



After our pumpkin carving and seed roasting, materials were presented so the students could create their impressions of the inside of a pumpkin


They wanted to try writing their names on their work, and were given "name cards" to copy
Skeletons are everywhere this time of year, and can provide a great start to scientific conversation, as well as discussion about things that scare us, both pretend and real





 



 

This student has experimented with a variety of joining materials, reaching her own meaningful conclusions about what works best 



 

The students request our spooky read-alouds often, and are currently showing great interest in fairy tale themes and characters such as dragons, princesses, and witches.
