Halloween Day was such an exciting day. We loved wearing our costumes to school and we paraded and showed them off to Mrs. Ruddick's class - our Buddy class. Halloween stations was a fantastic way to spend our day together! We enjoyed playing Halloween Tic Tac Toe, Spider Races, Spider Web - Grab the spiders!, the Skeleton Game, and Ghost Toss. During Activity Time, the children have been choosing to try many of the other Halloween activities: Pumpkin Math With partners, the children played our Pumpkin Patch Math game. Not only did playing the game help with math concepts such as counting and reading dice, it also provided the opportunity to practice working with a partner. Playing games with others gives children the opportunity to practice turn taking, to communicate, to help their partner when they get stuck, to follow rules, to listen to their partner, and to experience winning and losing. All are an important part of social development. Of course, we always end partner work by "thanking" our partners for working with us!
