How do Hiawatha teachers celebrate Halloween? With a good book! :)
We had quite a few literacy themed Halloween costumes this year! The 5th grade team all dressed up as Macbeth and the 3 witches, which happens to be their current read aloud. Mrs. Hayes was the tree in Chicka Chicka Book Boom. Miss Falls and Miss Izzi went with Piggie and Gerald today. Some of the 3rd grade teachers chose book character detectives, like Nate the Great and Cam Jansen, while one chose to represent Harry Potter. We even had a student dressed as Harry Potter reading one of the Harry Potter book today. I am not even sure which of the Potter series it was, because he wouldn't even look up from his book when I took his picture. Talk about engagement!!!
I hope you had a nice, safe Halloween. Perhaps you can end this cold and rainy night reading a Halloween book as a family!
