Spririt Week and Fun-O-Ween!

Whew! I have to admit that our week seemed much longer than usual! Although I really tried to keep things as "normal" as possible, spirit week added some excitement to our week! Monday was shades day and this was the coolest group of kids ever!

Hat day was a huge success and lots of fun hats made their way to school!

Halloween finally arrived and our classroom was invaded by a chimney sweep, a princess or two, a skeleton, a goddess, a gymnast and even Santa! Here they are before Fun-O-Ween begins!

Despite the excitement that Halloween normally brings, they were incredibly well-behaved and we had a lot of fun at Fun-O-Ween! The following slide show is from Fun-O-Ween and shows a number of the activities. You'll see kids tossing bean bags, playing Ghost in the Graveyard, pinning a nose on the Jack-o-lantern, trying to limbo under the stick, coloring, bowling and playing musical chairs! Through it all...lots of smiles!



All day long, we were on the lookout for Waldo, from the book Where's Waldo.

We even saw a girl with a "bad case of stripes"!!!

All in all, it was a busy, but fun week!
