It was another busy week here at school! As you can see, we made our upper case J craft look like jack-o-lanterns. I had precut orange oval shapes in various sizes, and the children worked on layering them together to get a nice 3D effect - and of course they added faces. Our jack-o-lanterns were very happy and festive looking!
We had 3 choices for our letter J hand prints this week: the jack-o-lanterns were made by painting the front of a closed fist, then rolling that on the paper. This is another idea that I've been using for a long time, and I think it too came from Mailbox Magazine long long ago.
The jaguars and jellyfish were inspired by some I saw on Pinterest, my number one source of fun ideas!
We also had lots of costume play this week - of course! Pretending is a powerful thing, and 3, 4, and 5 year olds definitely yearn to be powerful! Add lots of candy and staying out late, and you have a pretty awesome holiday!
