Costume Parade All Saints 2006




What a fun day we had at All Saints today. We had a BIG parade out in front of the school building. Everyone wore costumes and we marched around the drop off area to halloween music. It was so much fun. I wasn't afraid at all of all the big kids with scary mask. I told Mommy...they are just pretending. I have decided to be Snow White this year. My costume is getting a little too short!

After our parade, the perky puppies went back to our class and had ICE SCREAM sandwiches. They were yummy! We have had so much fun learning about halloween. I learned that spiders have 8 legs and bats fly at night. The perky puppies learned some really cute songs about a fat little witch named Rose, a bat song and the monster mash. We made great halloween snacks at school. My favorite was spooky eyeballs made from white powdered donuts, jelly life savers, chocolate chips and red icing. One day we made Monster Mash out of ice cream, green whip cream, chocolate chips and marshmellows. I didn't like all the stuff mixed together in the monster mash. We make so many wonderful art projects and books. I make a book every week at school that I bring home and read to Mommie and Daddy. Sometimes we make more than one book. Mrs. Justice and Mrs. Crouch are great teachers and they keep us sooo busy!

Our class started spanish in September. We have already learned lots of great stuff. We go to a special class twice a week (Tuesday and Thursday). If we can say our spanish color and wear it to our spanish class on Thursday we get a special treat. We practice our color daily and I definately can say them by Thursday so I can get the treat! I can say and identify -Brown (Cafe), Red (rojo), Blue (Azul), White(Blanco)and Orange (Narunja). I have also learned to say Hello, Friend, Goodbye, How Are you? and Very well thank you in Spanish. I learned a new song in spanish which really impressed Mommie and Daddy when I performed it imprompto in the car for them.

Today was report card day. Mommie and Daddy are so proud of me as I got a good report. My report card says I know all of my colors in english and can identify them. I know my numbers to 20, I can sit still and quiet in circle time, I play well with others(which is something Mommie struggled with when she was in kindergarten), I know my shapes and I know my birthday. I haven't been tested yet but I know my address and am working on learning my phone number. I am also learning to use phonics to sound out the first letter of words. Often I help Mommie figure out what the first letter of certain words are. I can also add some small numbers like 1+1, 1+2, 1+3 all the way to 1+9. My princess computer that Pop Pop gave me for Christmas last year taught me to do this. Once again, when I did it for the first time by myself...Mommie was really impressed! Mommie and Daddy go for my first parent teacher conference with Mrs. Justice and Mrs. Crouch next Thursday.

The perky puppies and the busy bee class will perform in our first chapel service on November 16th. We are going to make and wear indian vest. It should be a wonderful event.
