Finished Alphabet books and Thanksgiving Snack Feast

We finished our Alphabet Books. Everyday since the beginning of the school year the kids have worked on a letter of the alphabet. (Don't worry we will still be working on the alphabet everyday). It has been good to see how much they know. We have been working a lot on writing their names. I am so excited to see the kids improve. It has surprised me how much I get excited that the other kids, not just my own, are learning.

For today's lesson we had a Thanksgiving Snack Feast. All of the kids enjoyed helping their selves to bananas, cranraisins, apples, graham crackers, ritz crackers, animal crackers, and granola bars.

It was a good Thanksgiving lesson.

Halloween Party

We had a blast at our Halloween Party. So much FUN! We had two superheros, three princesses, a fairy, and a fierce fire blowing dragon. We colored, did a dot-to-dot, counted some scary things, read Halloween stories, played games, and watched a Mickey Mouse cartoon.

Of course I read a story about a good witch and a bad witch. So much more fun when you are dressed in a witch costume. We played pin the tail on the donkey, but we called it "tape the star on the witches hat." My favorite for the whole day was musical chairs. For most of the kids it was the first time that they have ever played it. Most catched on and some couldn't figure out why we took a chair out of the middle after we stopped the music. The kids were getting so into it. They were running so fast around the chairs. We'll have to play that again - it quite entertaining to watch.

After the games we ate snacks and watched a Mickey Mouse Halloween cartoon.

Thanks for dressing up your children they are so cute and I enjoy teaching them so much.
