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. Click the button below and enjoy the story at home!
  • 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.
