Harvest Party

Our vocab hat.

Listening to a story before the Vocabulary Hat Parade.

I remember now why I dreaded party days when I was teaching...now I see why the parents wanted to try so hard to make it fun for the kids. Interesting to see both sides of the fence. Either way...PARTY DAYS ARE EXHAUSTING! Since the public schools don't actually celebrate "Halloween" Hunter's school had the kids do a Vocabulary Hat Parade. The kids choose a vocab word and then decorate the hat according to that word. Hunter did Mystery. We headed to the Dollar Store and created a pretty neat little hat. The parade was great and all the words were very creative!

Hunter's First Field Trip

My group: Nali, Hunter and Jameson

Hunter's favorite animal there...the llama

Feeding the chickens.

Hunter holding a full cup of food since he wouldn't feed the animals.

About to start the hayride.

The only snuggle I got the whole field trip...Hunter was too cool for hugs.

Picking out the perfect pumpkin.

Hunter went on his first field trip this week to a Pumpkin Patch/Farm with the morning and afternoon Kindergarten classes. He had so much fun and couldn't hardly sleep the night before. They had lots of animals to pet and feed along with a huge pumpkin patch for the kids to choose their very own to take home. Hunter was not too fond of the animals licking the food out of his hand so he just watched his classmates enjoy that part. We went on a hayride through the woods and into the pumpkin patch. There was not a child around without a smile on their face. I'm glad I got to experience the first field trip.
