Mrs. Bagby's Witch School!

Halloween is coming.  It is one of my favorite holidays!  We read, "Which Way to Witch School" by Scott Santoro.

I rephrased some of the verses in the book, and made up my own verse.... then we turned ourselves into witches and wizards and displayed our "Witch School" out in the hallway.  By the end of the week I hope to have them memorize the poem, but oh my goodness, our display is SOOOO cute and the sweeties just LOVE it! (Oh, and don't worry... I won't turn them to mice) ;) 




We have been very busy during center time.  Here are some pictures of what we have been doing!

Playing "Shoo Scarecrow!"
The kids had to roll to see how many scarecrows were going to fly to the barn.  Whoever got all of their scarecrows to the barn first was the winner! :)
Planting pumpkins in the field!
The kids had to roll to see how many pumpkins to plant.  After all of the pumpkins were planted we counted to see how many we had in our field.  
Practicing our letters!
Making our class book!
Rolling the cubes to make and write words!
Great job! :)
Working on our wizards and witches for the hallway display!

Painting candy corn for a story sequencing activity later this week.
Last week we did an awesome unit on SCARECROWS!  I purchased this unit from one of my favorite, favorite, favorite creators on Teachers pay Teachers, Deanna Jump.  You will see a lot of stuff coming home this year with her name on it.  :)  Anyway, we made a scarecrow book, including circle maps and diagrams, and made an absolutely adorable scarecrow that is hanging out in our hallway.  

Our scarecrow circle map!
Writing in our book!

We also took an opportunity last week to learn about living and non-living things.  




See what fun we have been having in Kindergarten?!  Love it! :))))
