Peek at the Week

  • Our story this week was The Hungry Witch by Hands on Holiday Stories.  This story takes a  look at a witch’s Halloween supper.  She eats a wonderful meal of bugs and worms and spiders, but when she decides to add a few children to her plate, she runs.  Children love being grossed out and this Halloween meal is delightfully awful.  There’s a lot of new vocabulary and plenty of opportunities for communication in this story, but the main attraction is simple Halloween fun.

  • We made Monster Slim and filled it with all the disgusting things the Hungry Witch eats
  • We decorated and carved pumpkins
  • We decorated our Halloween Bags for Trick or Treating
  • We worked on comprehension skills by answering who, what, where questions
  • Our letter focus this week was “Gg” The children explored items from our “Gg” box like Gail, grapes, goat, guitar and ghost.
  • We finished All about Me from ULS. This months unit focuses was on what makes us unique and similar as well as body identification and function.
