Painting pumpkins!

Who says the 'middle child' has no fun? If you have no clue what I mean, go back to my previous post and get caught up.
We painted ceramic pumpkins today to get in the festive spirit! I even got to join in on the fun!
Tomorrow, we dress up as a book character. Tune in tomorrow to see all things fun!

Giftbag galore.

Hello all!
I've told a coworker that my years of teaching were like children. With last year being my first year, they're like my oldest. I took so many pictures did so many extra activities. This year's group is like the middle child. I love them just as much (if not, more) but I forget to take photos and our crafts are not as frequent but I will say that they (being the activities) are more extravagant..
We've had so much fun in October! We've been learning about dinosaurs. We made some out of noodles.
Then, we switched gears and started learning about cows for our Ag in the Class segment!
We made our own butter! Each student was given their own butter jar to shake/take home. To my surprise, everyone enjoyed it! We even used our senses to observe beef jerky..which had mixed reviews.
Saturday is CCA's fall festival! We'll be selling beef chilli with other fixings.
Halloween is near again, I'll post about that later. I just wanted to show off my goodie bags for the kids this year! I will say that last year's class only got candy from me..no goodybags! See, things even out! ;)
