I am Thankful....

We had such a fun day in our Pilgrim and Native American costumes!  We enjoyed our yummy feast, too! 

  I was amazed at how many laps some of my first graders ran at the Fun Run!  Here are just a couple of pictures I took before the racing began:

Halloween Fun

 We had fun doing Pumpkin Math.  We measured the height and circumference of our pumpkins and we weighed our pumpkins on a balance scale with bears. 

On Halloween, we had a SPIN day.  The children got to "spin" to each first grade class.  In 1C we guessed which of 4 ghosts would spin when it was dropped to the floor.  After we guessed, we dropped them so we could see that the one that had arms like a helicopter would spin.  Then we got to make our very own spinning ghosts.  

I carved a pumpkin so the students could write about the steps to carve a pumpkin.  In the evening the pumpkin was in front of my house when some of my 1C friends came to trick-or-treat.  I loved seeing them in their costumes!
