Happy Halloween


Hollow bags and kids eating Jello
And leaves all red, orange, and yellow
Leaves are falling all around
Landing everywhere on the cold ground
Orange pumpkins on every block
Witches, ghouls, and long black socks
Even kids with different baskets
Every door are vampire caskets
Now it's time to go to bed, and Frankenstein has a big head

By Coran
(Who also won the Red Ribbon Week poetry contest! Congratulations!)


Here are some photos from our Halloween Party... look at those groovy costumes!












Thanks for all the healthy treats at our Halloween Party parents! :)

This fun fruit tray was delivered by the nurse. Some weird stuff on here including: rambutans, chimoya, crab apples, baby kiwi, sea beans, & carnival cauliflower! Fun and nutritious!

Poetry

Can you guess the answers to these haiku riddles?




Footprints in the yard
Sparkling fur that's very smooth
Mean howls around
By Payton




So cool and pretty
It blooms at night and daylight
Does not talk at all
By Brianna




I am a small bug,
Flying in the air am I,
And I jump so high.
By Laila

Colorful balloons
floating high in the daylight sky
oh s beautiful!

Animal Systems Posters

These awesome posters made by our class were up in the hall for quite a while. I finally found the pictures on my memory card so I could upload them! They've gone home, but I thought I'd post them anyway, so the kid's who didn't get to take them home could at least have a picture to show mom & dad. :)
