Biscuits and Apple Butter

The kids loved peeling and cutting apples to make apple butter.

We also made homemade butter to go with our homemade biscuits!

Pumpkin Carving

We had fun voting on a face for our pumpkin and then carved it.

They thought the roasted pumpkin seeds were delicious!

Spooky Fun!

What a cute bunch!


Oh yeah..we spilled the seeds, pumpkin guts, my drink, you name it, we made a mess of it! Mrs. Robinson was impressed when she returned from buying snacks, that we actually finished carving the pumpkin. (I was too!)

With a rainy week and no recess, we made the best of it and played Everyday Math Games on the Smartboard. The kids had so much fun!

They are a competitive group! Can you see the 2 teams?

There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Number...we sang the song and pointed to the numbers as we sang!

They loved playing the Chicken Game! They had to sort chicken eggs by color. The first person to collect a dozen eggs of the same color had to stand up and cluck like a chicken!

I just love seeing the kids use a dictionary to find words!

Spin a Number game...we played it on the Smartboard and then could play it in the math center.

This was the first week of using the wooden blocks. We usually don't bring out the wooden blocks until January, but this class truly loves to build! As you can see, they were ready for them.

They have loved designing and buying costumes in our costume shop.

This week we started using our Reading Buckets! This kids are doing a fantastic job and love doing it!

We read out of our buckets each morning, after completing our morning center.

Their favorite stories in the reading center are the books we've made in class.
