Montessori Halloween Party

Rachel's class Halloween party was lots of fun.  They got to sing songs, do crafts and play games. 

Their teacher read books to them while we were waiting for all the parents to get here for the program.
 

 These are the three songs that they sang for us.

 All the kids jumped in and cleaned up all the leaves that they threw at us.  Rachel was so excited about being able to throw leaves at us.  She and Aubree (her friend) told us even though it was supposed to be a secret.  Rachel hasn't figured out what a secret means. 

 

 The kids were split into two groups and Rachel got to go make a glow in the dark necklace.  She ended up having a melt down after this because I made her stand in line and not cut in line for another game.  So needless to say we ended up having to go to time out for a little bit.

 

 After our melt down we went and got to decorate a cupcake.  She had fun with that and then ate it right afterwards.

 

The other game they played was they got to throw a ball into the jar and whatever jar the ball landed in they got some Halloween candy for their bag.  So they then had snacks.  Rachel showed me one of her new lessons that she had learned in school.  It was good to see what she is doing in school.
