    Ok, so I have a list of links to my Halloween activities we'll be doing in the next few days. Hope this helps some people!

    Hallo-Weiner Script: http://www.timelessteacherstuff.com/readerstheater/Hallowiener.html

    I also printed out a sheet of tiny pumpkins, ghosts, witches, etc. The kids will write stories, and whenever they are referring to the witch, they will put a picture of the witch. I forget what these are called, but we're going to use them to work on dialogue.

    Jem-
    Those all look like such fun ideas! How are you going to fit them all in?
    I like the Moans, Groans, and Skeleton Bones book, but I couldn't tell from the website how it gets put together. Is it one of those books where you flip the 3 different parts, and get different sentences each time?

    I love the pumpkin science sheet from Laura Candler. :)

    Tomorrow for me is pumpkinology. They'll count the seeds, see how many pumpkins make up their weight, do general measurements, etc. This year I even decided we are rolling our pumpkins down the large, steep hill at school to see which is going to fall first (in seconds).

    Then Friday we'll have a wacko amount of science after the stories at the campfire- atomic slime, sound effect balloons, science with light sticks, and... food, food, and more food. Okay, that last part isn't science!! But I'm DEFINITELY looking forward to the upcoming festivities, letting loose after being sort of rigid this past week.

    Looks like fun but we here can't do anything geared towards Halloween or "cookie cutter" type activities or basically having any sort of fun activity for the students even thought they are still kids.
