Gingerbread Hunt!

I liked finding the clue in the locker. I really liked the Gingerbread Hunt! I really liked looking for him in the office. The most favourite part was baking them. My most favourite, favourite, favourite part was eating them. - Hayden

We found clues to look for the Gingerbread Man. There were clues in the library, the office, the locker, and the photo copy room. I liked finding the Gingerbread Man and seeing the clue in the locker. - Tanner

The Gingerbread Hunt was so much fun! I opened the envelope and a Gingerbread guy came out. We had to read him and then went into the gym, the office, the library, water fountain and the locker. Then we baked him. We ate them at school and I saved two of them for home. - Nick

Christmas Concert

We sang "It's a Candy Cane Kind of Christmas".  I liked the Oh Baby, Rock Rock Rock. I also liked the actions. We wore red and white to look like candy canes. - Hana

At the museum we saw soldier stuff and toys from a long time ago. We saw a baby doll and a Christmas tree. They gave us a cookie and a drink. - Carl

We went to the Morris Museum and we saw guns, skates, old desks and a old telephone. We got to pick a cookie and a drink. - Anthony

What We Know About Pumpkins!

Our class has been learning about pumpkins. These are the things we know:
- they are orange
- green stems
- they grow on a vine
- you can make pumpkin soup
- they make a jack-o-lantern
- you can make pumpkin bread and pie
- they are green and then they turn orange
- they have seeds
- they are smooth or bumpy
- they can be big or small
- they have thick vines

First we cut the top of the pumpkin. Then we took the seeds out. We separated the seeds from the goop. I dressed up as a kitty. Everybody had lots of fun. - Cadance

We took out the seeds then we carved the pumpkins. We weighed the pumpkins. Ours weighed 5 kg. I dressed up as an elf. We had lots of fun and we went to the other class. Happy Halloween! - Tate

We took the seeds out and the goop. We made them into jack-o-lanterns. We guessed how much they weighed and measured the pumpkins. I dressed up like Iron Man. - Mark
