October classroom contest......

Hi all,
This is my first attempt at blogging so here goes.
Kathy Donahue and I went to the district (where you get all the cutouts and stuff).
We came back with enough skeletons for each class, (except kindergarten),
the class needed to work together to put together the skeleton.Come up with their favorite character from a book and dress up the skeleton. We will hang them up around the library and vote for the best one. They have all come so detailed I think everyone should win something. We will post a picture when we get them all in.
We have been reading fractured fairytales to the younger kids. This week it's The three Bears. We are reading Joey Pigza swallowed the key. The kids seem to like the book.
This year we have also created the "Canyon View Cafe" It's an area for the older kids. Grades 3-6 although all the classes use it. We have bean bag chairs, studio chairs, and a small sofa. It helps for quiet reading.
We also have "The Castle" for the younger grades.
Ok I think that is enough rambling. Pictures soon.....
