Month 2✅
I’ve never been asked “can I smell you?” (or some variation) so much in my life🤣 This teacher survived Halloween 2019 as a mint-scented Mr. Sketch marker!
October was a little better than September. Still hard. Still exhausting. But I think we are finding a little groove🤞 I don’t feel so much like a chicken with my head cut off. More like a squirrel gathering nuts for winter!
My bigs LOVE games (jenga, war, race to 20), coloring (color by numbers/letter especially!), and alllll the paper; my littles love art, coloring, the sensory table, and playdough. We have been doing lots of those things!
We did a directed drawing of Frankenstein to practice our shapes and they all did amazing! My littles cut ghosts and glued cotton balls, they also made Jack-o-Lanterns. My bigs ripped paper towels and glued them to the people they cut out to make mummies! They also made pumpkins–they cut out a pumpkin all on their own and decorated them! I’m so proud of them all!😍
Our sensory table had orange rice (my nuggets thought it was cheese🤦♀️😂) and black noodles, and the ghosts added their letters before Halloween (hot glue letters).
Between Halloween, the migraine I got Thursday night, school, getting ready for conferences and our Christmas program, and farming I’m ready for Christmas break so I can sleep for a week or two😅
