Hello Firefly Families!
We had some more Halloween fun in the Firefly Room room this week! We learned that bats come out at night and this means they are nocturnal animals. We painted a yellow moon and cut out bats to fly over it, used plastic hammers to hammer golf tees into a big pumpkin and wrote in our journals about what rhymes with BAT. We also sequenced the story of the "Big Pumpkin", and painted "Five Little Pumpkins" sitting on a gate and went trick-or-treating in our spooky house! We read a fun story about a ghost who was a quilt and talked about how it's ok to be different, and created our own "quilt" ghost with tissue paper. We read Five Little Pumpkins, The Big Pumpkin, The Ghost Who Was a Quilt and watched the video "Bats By Night" by Wild Detectives. Our HWT letter this week was O. We also celebrated "Apple Crunch Day" with the rest of the LECC--this was a yummy hit with our Fireflies! 🍎
Thank you for a wonderful birthday this week as well! Our Fireflies made it so special! 💛

Five Little pumpkins, sitting on a gate.
The first one said, "Oh my! It's getting late!"
The second one said, "There are witches in the air!"
The third one said, "But we don't care!"
The fourth one said, "Let's run and run and run!"
The fifth one said, "Isn't Halloween fun?!"
Then woooooo went the wind and OUT (clap) went the light!
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight.
Here are some pictures from our week!
Coming Up Next Week: More Halloween fun!
