Yesterday, we had an awesome day celebrating Halloween!
We started the day off with a read aloud called Dia de los Muertos and learned a little bit about how the Hispanic culture celebrates their version of Halloween, also known as Day of the Dead.
We learned some new words in Spanish and used context clues in the book to help us figure out what they meant.
In the afternoon, we had our Halloween party!
Thank you to everyone who brought in yummy treats, we devoured them all.
As the students ate their treats, we watched a Halloween movie called Room on the Broom, which is also a book that is featured in our classroom library!
If you look closely, you can see some special guests on our desks! We recently filled up our GEMS box with gems the students received for being respectful, responsible, and safe. Our choice of a small celebration was to bring in our stuffed animals, dolls, and blankets.
Nice job 2nd graders!
