Trick or Treat!?

Who has eaten way. too. much candy this week?? That would be me! Haven't even been trick or treating but I did take a trip down the candy isle while grocery shopping and those darn pumpkin spice hershey kisses just happened to find there way in my cart.  I am a sucker for everything pumpkin spice flavored!

Since I have no kids and won't be going trick or treating next Wednesday, here is a cute little craftivity that plays off of the 'trick or treat' saying. I found this super cute idea over at Doodlebugs Teaching and added a writing portion to go with it.

 

I'm going to have the kids write 4 clues about themself:

1. Are they a boy or girl.

2. What color hair they have.

3. Something they like to do.

4. A favorite of theirs. 

 

They will illustrate what they look like and then cover their picture with a 'sheet' to make thier diguise as a  ghost!

We've been studying all about spiders this week. Here's a peek at what our learning looks like.

 

We recorded our learning on a KWL chart.

 

 We put alot of what we learned into a spider booklet.

 

 We wrote spider facts.

 

 Drew a diagram of a spider and labeled it.

And wrote an acrostic poem using words that describe spiders.

 

We also put what we knew about spiders into a spiders can/have/are chart. 

 

 

We used the organizer to create a friendly spider art activity and sandwich poem!
